The National Portrait Gallery and EIZO: Celebrating People and Portraiture

Since 2015, EIZO has been a proud supporter of the National Portrait Gallery through our sponsorship of the National Photographic Portrait Prize.

This ongoing partnership reflects our shared commitment to excellence, creativity, and the celebration of human stories through visual expression.

A Gallery with Purpose and Vision

The National Portrait Gallery is dedicated to telling Australia’s story through portraiture. Located in the heart of Canberra, it houses a remarkable collection of works that capture the diversity, achievements, and experiences of Australians from all walks of life.

Through its exhibitions and programs, the Gallery continues to foster a deeper understanding of identity and culture, encouraging visitors to reflect on the richness of Australia’s people and communities.

The National Photographic Portrait Prize

A highlight of the Portrait Gallery’s annual calendar is the National Photographic Portrait Prize. This highly anticipated prize and exhibition showcases the best in contemporary photographic portraiture, offering professional and emerging photographers alike the opportunity to share their vision of humanity.

Each year, the NPPP draws submissions from across the nation, resulting in a powerful exhibition that travels beyond Canberra, reaching audiences throughout Australia. The prize highlights not only technical skill and creativity but also the ability of portraiture to capture the essence of a subject, a glance, an expression, or a story.

EIZO is honoured to have supported this prestigious prize since 2015, enabling the Gallery to continue presenting portraits that inspire conversation and connection.

Precision in Portraiture with EIZO ColorEdge

Behind the scenes, the Gallery’s photography studio relies on EIZO ColorEdge monitors to ensure accuracy and consistency in their imaging workflows. For a gallery that places such importance on authenticity and detail, colour precision is essential.

EIZO’s ColorEdge range provides the Gallery’s photographers and digital specialists with the confidence that what they see on screen is true to life. This accuracy is crucial for preparing images for print, exhibition, and digital presentation, ensuring that every portrait reflects the artist’s intent.

Continuing the Partnership

Our partnership with the National Portrait Gallery is more than sponsorship, it’s a collaboration grounded in shared values: celebrating creativity, supporting artistic talent, and ensuring that the stories of Australians are told with clarity and integrity.

We are proud to continue our support of the National Photographic Portrait Prize and the Gallery’s broader mission. At EIZO, we believe in the power of images to move people, and through this partnership, we’re helping to ensure that portraits, both photographic and painted, remain a vital part of Australia’s cultural landscape.
