We're delighted to announce a new three-year partnership with The Skinny, supporting emerging Scottish artists as they embark on their careers. The Skinny Showcase began in 2007 with the aim of offering a platform to early career artists and designers. Since then, it has featured more than 100 different artists in print and online, with a double page spread in the monthly magazine plus online galleries and the occasional real world exhibition. Many of the artists featured in the Showcase have gone on to prominence in the art world, including Rachel MacLean, Kevin Harman and Romany Dear.
Every year The Skinny’s selectors tour the Scottish degree shows to find the best of the visual art graduates to feature in our summer editions. This year, in partnership with Edinburgh Art Festival, that selection is being brought together in a special exhibition that will run throughout August. Held at Creative Exchange in Leith, the exhibition offers the chance to discover the work of four emerging artists.
