Rock Trust – Postcard Art
Our sixth postcard art auction has seen 97 artists from across Scotland and beyond donating 162 pieces of postcard sized artworks. Among the cards, bidders will find the work of Avril Paton, best known for her ‘Windows in the West’ depiction of a Glasgow tenement, cartoonist Ken Pyne, and Edinburgh based Lynn Hanley and Stephen Mangan. The pint-sized petite art works will form part of a three-week long exhibition, ‘Between a Rock and an Art Place’, at Edinburgh’s Summerhall arts venue, where visitors can view the works before placing a bid in person or online. The exhibition runs from 23 June until 14 July (2017), after which the highest bidders will be invited to purchase their chosen piece.
The proceeds from the auction will go towards helping vulnerable 16-25 year olds avoid and move on from homelessness, building the resilience and life skills necessary for independent adult life.
