We were pleased to recently welcome BA (Hons) Fine Art 2013 alumnus Jack Bullen, Director and Co-Founder of Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, back to the Art School to speak to our students.
Jack generously shared his journey of building the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair and his experience in entrepreneurship and printmaking.
A practicing painter and printmaker himself, through WCPF Jack educates collectors and novices alike on printmaking processes and techniques through the curated exhibition of invited print galleries, individual artists, printmaking studios and artist-led demonstrations, academic talks and curator tours.
Jack is also an advocate of print as an accessible basis from which to establish an art collection, allowing for buyers to explore different artists and styles and to confidently talk about and grow their collection.
Our students learned more about the Fair’s Open Call and opportunities open to students.
CGLAS X WCPF PRIZE
The CGLAS Prize at WCPF is awarded each year to a recipient external to the Art School network, and selected by a member of our Print Room team. The winner receives three days access to our Print Room, where they can explore and develop their printing skills alongside our tutors, fellows and students.
Our warmest thanks to Jack for visiting us and for an inspiring talk.
