ARMB Artists’ Studio Residency Project

Shape is delighted to be working with The New Art Gallery Walsall, to host the 2015-2016 Adam Reynolds Memorial Bursary (ARMB). This bursary was established in 2008 by Shape, in memory of sculptor Adam Reynolds (1959-2005), to support disabled mid-career artists to develop their practice and profile. 

From 8 October The New Art Gallery Walsall will be showcasing works from each of the seven previous recipients of the Adam Reynolds Memorial Bursary in anticipation of the 2015 winner.
