2024 marks the 10th year of the Graduate Scholarship Programme, and we will be launching a new exhibition in the New Adelphi Exhibition Gallery with a variety of artists that have been a part of the scheme – over 50 artists in the past decade!
This exhibition will feature 16 of our previous Graduate Scholars, these include: Suraj Adekola, Katie Aird, Lubna Ali, Mollie Balshaw, Joe Beedles, Heather Bell, Alena Ruth Donely, Aidan Doyle, Elliott Flanagan, Joe Fowler, Jesse Glazzard, Jack Jameson, Lizzie King, Adam Rawlinson, Joshua Turner, and Meg Woods.
As a legacy of the programme, scholars are expected to gift work into the University’s Art Collection. The work on display has been selected to showcase the breadth of creative practice from across BA and MA courses at the School as well as participants from different cohorts. Covering a range of topics, their works exemplify the exciting and urgent emerging practices happening in the North West right now. From personal identity, LGBTQ+ visibility, wellbeing and politics; thoughts on place, landscape and nature; to passionate enquiries into form, shape, colour and the nature of image-making, the artworks reflect some of the many issues of the past decade.
