The art sales exhibition Inception Art Show with a catalogue sponsored by Anderson Strathern will take place from 3 to 12 May at Dalkeith Palace.
The art on display includes work by more than 30 sculptors, artists, photographers and painters with ten new artists also exhibiting for the first time. With a focus on contemporary art and sales, Inception Art Show promises an enriching experience for art enthusiasts. This year, 35 modern and contemporary artists will ‘take over’ the Palace, offering visitors the opportunity to engage with the artists and their creations over the course of 10 days.
Families will be welcomed on a special Family Day on 11 May sponsored by Savills when there will be family-friendly workshops and demonstrations and there will be other events included in the programme with an online charity auction of the art raising funds for the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation.
Walter Dalkeith who helps curate the show with Taisir Gibreel and Charlotte Rostek said: “Working alongside the artists, we hope to create an immersive cultural experience that showcases the art at its best and engages directly with visitors.
“We are proud to create this platform for visitors to purchase artwork and support the incredible creativity and talent on show”.
Charlotte Rostek who directs development at the palace said: “I am delighted to see Inception return to Dalkeith Palace again this year. It has really become our flagship show signalling a whole new chapter in the story of this remarkable building and one we are excited to see unfold over the coming years.”
Edinburgh-based Judy Clark Fashion Designer and her sister Christine Clark the artist have some new work on display. Christine has returned to fashion illustration along with her beautiful fashion pieces and Christine has just designed the album cover for Kelly Jones of Stereophonics, an excerpt of which forms part of the display.
