Meet our Judges

We are very lucky to have a four-judge panel to choose the winning artworks. Our judges do an incredible job! Last year they sorted through 120 submissions; working together to select the final 16 pieces. Thirteen of those pieces were used in the 2023 calendar, while three were used on our 2022 Festive Season cards. This has become a Wintringham tradition that many of our clients, staff and supporters look forward to receiving every year.

To help you all get to know our judges, we asked them to tell us a bit about themselves and what they like about ArtSpace and judging last year's pieces.

Lyndy and Lucinda White

Lyndy has always had a strong interest in the arts and worked at the Victorian Artist’s Society earlier in her career. The family’s youngest  daughter, Lucinda, is the Foundation’s Administrator and a Director, Lucinda also has a passion for art, working as a Graphic Designer for 10 years prior to joining the Peter and Lyndy White Foundation. The Peter and Lyndy White Foundation was founded by Peter White OAM and Lyndy White to help people disadvantaged through personal, social or cultural circumstances. The Foundation has distributed over $104 million in grants for charitable purposes in Victoria since its inception in 2005.

"We think the Art Space is a wonderful opportunity for residents to express their emotions and learn new skills. The artists should be extremely proud of the standard and diversity of works they have produced. Art provides an outlet for expression, learning and satisfaction, and it is wonderful that Wintringham encourages this," says Lucinda.

Dot Lipmann AM

Dot Lipmann AM

Dot Lipmann AM is an artist and long-time volunteer at Wintringham. Dot has tirelessly volunteered at Wintringham's McLean Lodge every weekend for thirty years. She is known for being able to rapidly connect with people who have experienced homelessness and having a talent for overcoming barriers to help them. Her efforts earned her an Order of Australia (AM) in January 2020.

 

Dot trained in Fine Arts Painting at RMIT between 1967–70. She has had 17 solo exhibitions and numerous group exhibitions. Her most recent exhibition in 2022 was at Flinders Lane gallery - 45 Downstairs. 

Dot and her husband, Wintringham CEO/Founder Bryan Lipmann AM have funded the Wintringham Art Show since the inaugural show in 2014. The show came about after Dot encouraged Wintringham's artists to show at Collingwood Gallery, where she had exhibited for 10 years.

"The art show has generated a lot of excitement every year for anyone who wants to have a go. Pre-Covid, it also gave the many artists who live at Wintringham a chance to exhibit their work in a gallery. All submitted pieces are shown, which I think is a democratic attitude not found in commercial galleries. As a result some amazing pieces have been created. I've been a volunteer curator in the art show since 2014, and love watching the communal joy the show generates."
