As degree show time rolls round again for another year, so does this years Free Range. Now in its 9th year, Free Range brings together graduates of art and design qualifications over six weeks to exhibit their work in Europe’s largest graduate exhibition. And best of all it’s free.
This year Free Range is being held at The Old Truman Brewery, 91 Brick Lane in London town. It’s already in its second week on focusing on design graduates and tonight is the opening night for the second week of exhibitors starting at 6 till 10pm.
For a full list of all the institutions and schedules for the next five weeks check out Free Range calendar or the Free Range 2009 Brochure, including sample work from exhibitors.

I went to the show last week, and was mighty confused by what’s being taught in the art schools at the moment. There seems to be a huge emphasis on ‘image creation’ and very little push towards professional application. The images created were lovely, in many instances, and sometimes truly beautiful, but I would have thought that – at a time of increasing unemployment where being a new graduate is not going to be easy – the college’s should have been ensuring that the work their students produce will demonstrate their understanding of communication design. So the message to those graduates? Prove me wrong!
