Rising Stars 2016

Rising Stars is a platform to view and collect some of the most exciting emerging arts and crafts. Many artists who have recently completed their studies are at a cross roads: they have a portfolio of fabulous ideas but do not have a exhibitor track record. The New Ashgate Gallery offers a starting point to an exceptional career. This catalogue and the exhibition feature work by Mike Barrett Charlotte Biszewski Aimee Bollu Emma Buckley Rachel Butlin Karen Elizabeth Donovan Carol Hunt Tae Yeon Kim Georgia Lingwood Joanna Lloyd Sarah Luxford Jane Ogden-Swift Henry Pucknell Emma-Jane Rule Emily Stapleton-Jefferis Mircea Teleaga Albeiro Rojas Tomedes and Melissa Yarlett. The programme is supported by the Billmeir Charitable Trust and organised in partnership with the University for the Creative Arts.
