Boundless - Connecting Artists

Bankside Gallery, 21st July to 27th July 2008  

Thames Pathway Claire Wiltsher Boundless Connecting Artists is a unique exhibition bringing together learning disabled and mainstream artists. It will show an eclectic range of work, much of it by artists who have led lives far removed from the mainstream of society. Boundless makes a statement that all of us, disabled or not, have the right to make and enjoy art, and that this right, which is integral to our humanity, connects us, one to another.

Learning disabled artists across the country are being invited to submit work for the exhibition. All submissions will be judged on merit by a small panel of professional artists. In early June this panel will select twelve learning disabled artists to exhibit alongside three mainstream artists, Claire Wiltsher, Elizabeth Brown and Russell Hardman.

Boundless is being supported by four leading learning disability agencies, Choice Support, United Response, Regard Partnership and Skillnet.
