The Burt Brill and Cardens Graduate Show 2011

This year’s Burt Brill and Cardens Graduate Show is set to be the biggest and brightest on record. Packed full of innovative exhibits, from fashion to photography and sculpture to design, by students from the University of Brighton’s Faculty of Arts.

From 4 to 9 June 2011, exhibits from more than 500 students will transform the Faculty of Arts’ Grand Parade campus into the biggest gallery in the south-east of the UK. With two buildings and three-floors of gallery space to explore, over 15,000 visitors will discover the work of the class of 2011: perhaps taking the opportunity to commission work or compile a collection before students emerge as leading lights in their chosen discipline.

Now located on three sites, visitors can explore the heart of the exhibition in the three-floors of gallery space at Grand Parade; view Photography students work at Lighthouse, the leading arts agency and gallery based in Kensington Street, Brighton; and delve into exhibitions related to the dissertation research of History of Art and Design students at Pavilion Parade.

For exhibiting students the graduate show is the public climax to their years of study and the beginning of an exciting future. The class of 2011 follows alumni such as Turner Prize winners Rachel Whiteread and Keith Tyson, artist Alison Lapper, and fashion designers Julien Macdonald and Barbara Hulanicki.
