The RGU Art & Heritage team are concluding the 140th anniversary year of the Gray’s School of Art with a public showcase of notable artwork produced by students at Gray’s.

The RGU Art & Heritage team presents a selection of artworks made by notable Gray’s alumni from the RGU Art & Heritage Collections, selected from the works featured in the Gray’s School of Art: 140 Years exhibition, curated by Dr Judith Winter and Sally Reaper earlier this year. 

By returning these artworks to campus, we hope to bring the Gray’s School of Art 140th anniversary celebrations full circle and consider how setting has influenced this university’s creative pursuits.

Find the display on the Sir Ian Wood Building concourse and share your response on our feedback board! We would love to hear what thoughts, feelings, and creative ideas these works inspire.
