Black Swan Arts Open 2018

Chris Dunseath is exhibiting his bronze sculpture 'It's Full of Stars' in the Black Swan Arts Open. This is an annual competition that welcomes entries of original works from established practitioners and emerging artists of all professions and disciplines. Work can be submitted in any medium and in almost any size – from painting, drawing and printmaking to photography, sculpture and ceramics.

This year’s judging panel includes Michael Eavis, creator of Glastonbury Festival; Johnny Messum, founder of Messums Wiltshire; Steve Burden, winner of the Black Swan Arts Solo show prize; artist Sue Conrad and Debbie Hillyerd of Hauser & Wirth Somerset.

The many prizes include the first prize of £1000 supported by Hauser & Wirth Somerset, the Sue Conrad Prize of £1000 for work on paper and the Black Swan Arts prize of a solo show.
