The Adam Portraiture Award 2016 was held at the New Zealand Portrait Gallery between 25 February and 29 May 2016.
This year’s competition was judged by Mette Skougaard, Director of The Museum of National History, Frederiksborg Castle in Denmark.
59 portraits were selected as finalists, and a selection of these toured the country following the exhibition’s close.
Winner André Brönnimann in front of Sisters
Winner
André Brönnimann for Sisters
Runner Up
Logan Moffat for Stitch
People’s Choice Award
Terry Fergusson (The Bushman’s Son) for Still Mine
“I am impressed by the high technical standard and variety of the works. It has been very difficult to choose among these many outstanding portraits.
It has been of particular interest to see how the works are following international trends at the same time as many of them have particular elements in style and imagery that refers to the special culture and environment of New Zealand.”
