Graduate Show 2008

End of year exhibition by graduating students from the Academy's unique three-year Diploma course.

The exhibition is held at the Academy's new home on Southwark Street and is a chance for the public, gallery owners and art collectors to spot new talent and purchase work by emerging contemporary artists.

The Art Academy's Fine Art Diploma is an intensive, practice based, full-time course for students aiming to become professional artists, and offers one of the highest levels of tutored contact hours for any Fine Art course in the country.

The course has been running since the Academy's inception in 2000 and only a small number of students are enrolled on the course each year.

Many of the course tutors are resident artists at the Academy and include some of the UK's foremost young figurative artists.
