Sheila Foundation | Into the Light Pledge

Sheila – A Foundation for Women in Visual Art is a new cultural organisation established to support, promote and advocate for Australian women’s art and women artists. It will paint Australian women artists back into our history, assist and celebrate contemporary women artists and support the unique Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art at The University of Western Australia.

One of Sheila’s key projects is Into the Light, a national research project to identify generations of women artists from 1870 to 1960. The works and influence of many women artists have not been well-recognised even though they have made significant contributions to our art history. Bringing these women back ‘into the light’ will give us a more complete and varied view of Australian history, culture and attitudes.

In rediscovering these artists, many important works that would otherwise not join public collections will be unearthed. The Into the Light Circle brings together donors willing to pledge $2000 per year for three years to acquire and preserve such works, ensuring they help complete the picture of our art history.

As an Into the Light donor you will be invited to Cruthers Collection exhibition openings, special Sheila events and projects which give an insight into our art history and the Collection, and artist and curator tours. To join us to bring Australian women’s art Into the Light, please complete the pledge online below or click here to download a printable pledge form.
