'Then and Now' our 60th Anniversary exhibition, details and dates for submissions

Dear FPS members and prospective new members, please see attached the first draft of the exhibition information for our next show in November. The big change this year is the artist submission fees for the exhibition as we can no longer afford to subsidise the exhibition fees to such an extent for the venues we aspire to. Currently we are aiming to keep fees at around £100 per artist per show, depending on venue and external revenue such as sponsorship and merchandise. For the next show 'Then and Now' our 60th Anniversary exhibition, the fees will be around £100 for approx 2m wide by 3m high wall space - based on 20 artists participating, plus 12m of window hanging space for suitable work and over 90m square metres of floor space for sculpture. This fee is still heavily subsidised and we will still be looking for further sponsorship deals and commission sales from sales which still stands at 30% plus VAT . (any sponsorship opportunities that you kno

Drawings of Basque Refugee Children by Richard Murry

Begona Ulles pencil Drawing by Richard Murry 1939 Peter Murry, (FPS Secretary) has just sent a portfolio of  about twenty five drawings of Basque Refugee Children by his father, Richard Murry to the Library of the University of Southampton which maintains an archive specifically about the Basque Refugee Children who arrived in Britain towards the end of the Spanish Civil War in 1939. Richard Murry, an artist and later Curator and Librarian  of the Central School of Arts and Crafts, was probably a member of the Independent Labour Party at that time, may well have made the drawings as part of a fund raising or publicity drive on behalf of  Spanish Civil War refugees. Photos of the drawings are at   http://www.flickr.com/photos/yrrumuk/

OPPORTUNITY TO EXHIBIT IN POLAND

Hello All,   I took part in this Biennial in 2010 and actually went to  Poland  for the preview. (Very cheap in October and I have long been fascinated by the old eastern bloc countries). We were treated like royalty and the exhibition space is fantastic. The whole art centre is growing to include drama, poetry readings, musical events alongside the visual arts, and the catalogues they produce for the Biennial are special. The people running the centre are extremely welcoming, and have become firm friends. The quality of the work they show is high.  Poland  has a great history in the visual arts, and there are some excellent Polish contemporary artists making waves at the moment.   The Biennial is already an international event, but I promised I would spread the word amongst other artist contacts here and abroad. Also, I want to maintain a contact with the thought of possible future exchange exhibitions.   If any of you are interested enough to submit (deadline 9 th . Jun
