The Biennale of Sydney is pleased to announce Annika Kristensen as the inaugural Nick Waterlow OAM Curatorial Fellow.

Established by the Visual Arts Board of the Australia Council for the Arts in partnership with the Biennale of Sydney, the Fellowship celebrates the memory of Nick Waterlow (1941–2009) and the extraordinary contribution he made to the Biennale of Sydney, and to Australian and international contemporary visual arts.

Over the next two-years Annika has the unique opportunity to be mentored by the Artistic Directors of the 18th Biennale of Sydney, Catherine de Zegher and Gerald McMaster. We warmly welcome Annika to the Biennale team.

Originally from Perth, Annika completed a BA Arts (Communication Studies) at the University of Western Australia, majoring in fine art history. Annika worked as a freelance writer for The West Australian Newspaper and as a Gallery Assistant for Lister Gallery, Perth. Leaving for Scotland in 2007, Annika undertook an MSC in Art History, Theory and Display at the University of Edinburgh, while continuing to write features and reviews on a freelance basis for publications including The West Australian, Kurv Magazine, Amelia’s Magazine and The Skinny. Annika has held positions at the Frieze Art Fair, Artangel and Film and Video Umbrella, London, as well as being involved in various self-initiated curatorial projects.
