Artspace Welcomes New Board Member Zoe Paulsen
The board of Artspace is thrilled to announce that creative arts professional, Zoe Paulsen has been appointed to the Artspace Board of Directors, effective immediately.
Currently Fair Director for Sydney Contemporary, Australia’s premier art fair, Paulsen has previously held roles with Affordable Art Fair, Melbourne Street Art Festival, Can’t Do Tomorrow, The Other Art Fair, and has been a longstanding member of MCA Next Committee for Museum of Contemporary Art since 2010.
Paulsen said “Artspace is one of the leading presenters of contemporary art in the Asia Pacific region, and as one of the most respected, innovative, and creative institutions in Australia, I am so honoured to have been welcomed onto the Board of Directors. I’m excited to further engage with this vibrant community that continues to have such a positive impact on Sydney's arts and culture industry. A space that deeply supports artists exploring bold ideas and new practices is key to positioning the arts in Australia amongst a global context. It’s this dynamic and inclusive platform making the arts more accessible and sustainable - something that personally resonates and continues to inspire me every day.”
Artspace’s Board of Directors also wish to thank outgoing board member, Amanda Love who has been instrumental to Artspace during her 10 year tenure on the Board.
Artspace Chair, Peter Wilson said “Artspace has been privileged to have the wisdom, networks, and support of Amanda Love over the past ten years, and we paid tribute to her at our Gala event last Friday. As we look to the future, we are delighted that Zoe Paulsen has agreed to join our board, bringing her deep knowledge of contemporary art, passion for the artists and for the sector, and connectivity with the new generation of collectors, benefactors, and creators.”
Artspace celebrated the success of the organisation in 2024 with a Gala Fundraiser Dinner and Benefit Auction in their galleries, with all funds raised supporting Artspace’s future exhibitions, new commissions and learning and outreach programs and the studio program in the coming year. Artspace are looking toward announcing an exciting program for 2025 soon.
