HDTI Coventry University fine art student Karen O’Toole has won the £250 first prize in the Health Design & Technology Institute’s 2011 Fine Art Competition. The competition builds on the collection of art already on display in the HDTI building, whose corridors and galleries are proving to be a fantastic environment in which to exhibit. Karen’s untitled entry comprises a sculpture made from raw sheep fleece and an accompanying pastel drawing. The work is located on the ground floor of the HDTI building
and has already drawn enormous attention. The HDTI Fine Art Competition was established to encourage students to make use of the empty walls in the Institute’s new building. HDTI’s gallery landings, atrium and abundance of natural light make it an ideal location in which to exhibit and all shortlisted entrants are offered the chance to display their work. In addition, the competition gives the artists the opportunity to sell their piece or take commissions from interested purchasers.
Speaking after the presentation of Karen’s award, HDTI Commercial Development Director, Guy Smallman said: ‘The quality of entries this year has been fantastic. The shortlisted pieces include some wonderful paintings, drawings and sculpture and they look stunning in the building. The work has been extremely well received and generated a great deal of comment. We are delighted to sponsor this award.’ Jane Ball, Senior Lecturer in Fine Art, responded: ‘The HDTI Fine Art
Competition is a wonderful opportunity for final year undergraduates to exhibit their work. With such a shortage of appropriate space, students frequently find it very difficult to display their art to its best effect. The HDTI building provides them with a gallery where they can not only do that but also take commissions for future work.’

Kunstverein Internationally renowned, contemporary artist ‘Bob & Roberta Smith’ has donated this ‘kunstervein’ to us following his show ‘Hijjack Reality, Let 100,000 Kunstvereine Bloom!’ at the Mead Gallery, Warwick Arts Centre earlier this year. The ‘kunstverein’, or ‘arts centre/ club’ is a replica of his own shed/ studio in London that became the ‘Leytonstone Centre for Contemporary Art’ and began Bob & Roberta Smith’s idea of making spaces (in his own exhibitions) that would be given over to other artists
to show work in. His intention is that each time the kunstvereine are exhibited they are then left behind in the region or country they were shown in, to be used as art spaces of various sorts. We were delighted to be offered one of these spaces and intend to use it as a project and exhibition space to show work by students, staff and invited artists. As an external space, with its own very particular characteristics it offers a quirky and interesting alternative to a conventional ‘gallery’ type space.

Drawing Competition
Drawing Competition This is the third year that the Coventry University Drawing Prize has taken place and we are deligted to have The Design Buro (Coventry) LTD as our new sponsor. The competition was originally set up to encourage and promote drawing excellence as practiced with the University.
However, following the success of the two previous exhibitions, this year the scope of entry has been broadened to include alumni and ex-members of staff. The idea being to demonstrate how drawing taught here at Coventry continues with vitality and relevance beyond the UIniversity Walls.
