The Saatchi Gallery will hold an exhibition of the 20 shortlisted works from 16th-23rd April 2013, there will be an opening night where the winner will be announced. Please keep checking our website for dates. Julia Hennessy, Head of Art commented “Brogan is a very talented student and the Art Department feel that the achievement of being shortlisted from such a vast entry means she is already a winner in the School’s eyes. Obviously if ultimately she won we would be elated but we are all extremely excited about attending the opening night and seeing Brogan’s work displayed in The Saatchi Gallery. This is the first year we have entered the competition so we are very proud of Brogan’s achievement.”
