Trading Zone 2020: OPEN CALL

Trading Zone, Talbot Rice Gallery’s annual student exhibition is back for 2020!

Trading Zone creates links between different disciplines across the University of Edinburgh. Propelled by contemporary ideas, the exhibition celebrates the blurring of boundaries, and has a  vision of art, design or film intersecting with areas such as architecture, literature or music. In its third year, Trading Zone 2020 is taking place in the West Court of Edinburgh College of Art. All students, at any stage of their studies (undergrad and postgrad) are encouraged to apply. Students selected to participate will be supported by the Talbot Rice Gallery team, with the exhibition being promoted to local, national and international networks by TRG and ECA.

We are hoping to reach students of any discipline through our Open Call. So if you are keen to take part we want to hear from you!
