Newcastle University Fine Art Degree Show 2009

Newcastle University Fine Art Building & The Hatton Gallery.

Art and culture in the North East is preparing for a massive influx of new talent as the fifty-two undergraduates from Newcastle University BA Hons course showcase the product of four years of hard graft. The students are working hard to transform their studios into gallery spaces in which to show a large body of diverse and varied work giving visitors a chance to experience and invest in the new artists.

This year's graduating students have spent four years honing in skills in a variety of disciplines from ambitious sculpture to innovative film, painting, photography and socially engaged art projects. The graduates stand out for their initiative and enterprising spirit, many of them having exhibited their work in venues across Newcastle such as the Ctrl/Alt/Shift exhibition at the BALTIC Centre for contemporary Arts in March and exhibition spaces in the Ouseburn valley, Newcastle.
