THE GRADUATE ART PRIZE

THE GRADUATE ART PRIZE

ARTIQ, Herbert Smith Freehills and Atlantis Art Materials presented into its sixth year the influential award and exhibition open to all final year students of BA and MA at British Arts Universities. 

This exhibition selection featured the very best of the class 2018, showcasing outstanding work by 23 of the UK brighter artist graduates. 

ARTIQ’s Arts Manager Helen Buckley commented, “We received submissions this year from 35 different colleges and universities, including Leeds, Lancaster and London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee, Ulster, Falmouth and Newcastle, so we are delighted with the geographical spread of entries. Newcastle was one of the most successful universities in the final selection, with three students making the shortlist, the same as for Camberwell, only beaten by the Royal College of Art, which has four 2018 finalists and the Slade, with the highest number of all, with six graduating artists represented.”
