Ruskin Prize 2017

Another option to consider taking on for a responsive brief. The theme is challenging but could be interesting, and the competition itself promises a lot of valuable opportunities if successful, such as the chance of the exhibition..




Theme: Hand & Eye: Master of All Trades In The Age of Jack
referring to the Artist as Polymath

Open to many interpretations. Open to makers and craftspeople as well as fine artists.

"We are seeking entries from creative practitioners who are harking back to a way of working that defies easy categorisation and identifies with the fact that innovation is born from leakage between approaches - be it in concept, discipline or material."
