The RA’s annual Summer Exhibition opens tomorrow with works by David Adjaye, Yinka Shonibare, Isaac Julien, Gilbert & George and Phyllida Barlow among the 1100 exhibits on display.
The show remains the world’s largest open submission exhibition and a celebration of emerging and established contemporary artists working across painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, architecture, film and performance art.
Ahead of the exhibitions 250th anniversary, this year’s show has been coordinated by Royal Academician and Keeper of the Academy, Eileen Cooper.
The Architecture Gallery has been curated by Iranian-born architect Farshid Moussavi RA.
