Congratulations to Alan Constable on his Valley of the Arts Acquisitive Awards category win at the Manningham Victorian Ceramic Art Award 2013. We are thrilled with his achievement and that his artwork has been acquired for the Manningham Council art collection. Alan’s cameras are in high demand, having also recently been exhibited in two shows in the USA; ‘Alan Constable Ten Cameras’ curated by Ricky Swallow at South Willard, Los Angeles, and alongside Chris Mason (finalist in the Manningham Ceramics Art Award 2013), Julian Martin and Lisa Reid in ‘Outsiderism’ curated by Alex Baker, Director at Fleisher Ollman Gallery, Philadelphia.

Alan Constable’s winning ceramic camera.
Congratulations also go to finalist Chris Mason whose ceramic entry that featured two voluptuous, naked seated women, was a stand-out artwork in the prize. What an amazing award result for both artists and well deserved!
