The Art of PR

18 November 2024–23 November 2024

The Art of PR

Open: Monday 18 November – 23 November, 11.00 – 18.00

The Art of PR is the first exhibition to collectively present the work of established and emerging artists from the UK public relations sector.

The exhibition features former PRs who have gone on to launch successful professional art careers including ROSL 2024 Rising Star and Venice Biennale Fellow Tonye Ekine and portraitist Stella Tooth, who has been commissioned via the RP and is resident artist at the Half Moon Putney and David Emmanuel Noel, an interdisciplinary artist and advocate for cross-disciplinary collaboration, whose artwork has been featured at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, The Kennedy Center Washington DC, and Affair of the Arts, Culver City.

The Art of PR also presents talented artists currently working within PR including Sky Arts’ Portrait of the Year quarter-finalist Nadia Padayachy, Joe Thomas, Ruby Quince, Emily Rose Halladay, Justine Bower, Francesca Hales, Ade Lee, Alexandra Heybourne and Simon Moore.

Whilst the Advertising Industry has a long-established association with art and artists, its younger sibling, PR & communications, has never previously celebrated its artists.

This diverse and vibrant exhibition features a range of contemporary works in media including oils, watercolour, pencil, digital, print design and film photography.

“In the marketing world, Advertising thinks it has the freehold on artists. We wanted to show that is not the case. PR has some incredibly talented artists in its ranks and The Art of PR exhibition brings them together for the first time” said exhibition organiser Ade Lee.

The exhibition is supported by Boldspace.
