Presentation of a large multimedia screen to the Young Gallery by its Supporters group on Thursday, January 25 was welcomed Dr Emily Dunbar, Art Curator.
“This gift enables the Young Gallery to continue to engage visitors and host vibrant exhibitions in the heart of the city,” she said. The screen, permanently mounted in Gallery 1, will be used to enable digital works of art including film to be exhibited, and for the display of Young Gallery information. Tim Chadsey, Chair of the Supporters of the Young Gallery explained it was part of the function of the Supporters.
“We exist to widen the audience of the YG and assist the curator to fulfil its potential as the prime venue of visual art in the city. Part of our work is to raise funds to be able to support the gallery by making grants of much needed equipment. We are very pleased to give this screen and we know it will add depth to the visual art exhibitions the gallery puts on for many years to come.”
