This year, Washington Green launched IN:SIGHT – an open call for unsigned emerging visual artists to apply to join the ranks of some of the UK’s most talented artists. IN:SIGHT was access all areas – from painters, street artists and sculptors to photographers and sketchers, no style, genre or medium was off limits. Aiming to reach a wide audience nationwide, a campaign was launched in April 2015, inviting artists to submit their portfolios for review by our dedicated Creative Team, for the chance to be selected to exhibit their work in our Summer Exhibition 2015. The response was overwhelming with over 400 submissions received, and reinforced our belief that the UK is awash with some of the finest creative minds yet to be discovered. Herein lies our passion and commitment to giving emerging artists a platform, supporting and developing the talent of both UK and international artists. IN:SIGHT is a unique opportunity to showcase and capture the raw talent that those in the emerging art scene have to offer. Due to ongoing government cuts in Arts funding, Washington Green – as the UK’s leading fine art publisher – feels a responsibility to give something back and invest in the future of the UK arts scene. We recognise the importance of nurturing home grown talent and providing a stage for artists to shine and express themselves. Washington Green and Castle Fine Art are proud to present the artists featured in the Summer Exhibition 2015. We have great belief in the promise of this eclectic and talented group, and look forward to watching as their own respective success stories unfold over the coming months and years.
