AGWA is excited to welcome one of Australia’s most celebrated portrait artists, Vincent Fantauzzo, as the guest speaker for The West Australian Pulse Talks 2025. Alongside his talk, a special selection of works from his artistic journey so far will be on display.

A four-time Archibald People’s Choice Award winner and a passionate supporter of emerging talent, Vincent will join us on Saturday 23 August to share how art and creativity have shaped – and saved – his life.

In this inspiring Pulse event, he’ll take us through his personal and creative journey, offering a rare glimpse into the life behind the canvas. You’ll hear how he found his path through both success and struggle, and how art became a lifeline.

Vincent will also be signing copies of his new book, Unveiled – a raw, honest look at his non-linear road to success, shaped by creativity, neurodiversity, and a refusal to give up.

Whether you’re an aspiring artist, an art lover, or simply curious about the power of creative expression, this is a rare opportunity to hear from one of Australia’s most compelling voices in art.
