Book tickets for Royal Academy Summer Exhibition
We have special offers available on tickets for Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
Anyone can submit to the Royal Academy's Summer Exhibition which gives it a wonderful element of surprise. Over 11,000 pieces are sifted through from relative unknowns to famous artists and members of the RA. The fun part for visitors is choosing a favourite and, with the majority of works on sale at varying price ranges, you can even buy one if you really fall in love with it. First held in 1769, the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition is the largest regular contemporary art exhibition in the world. It's an impressive show that gives an excellent cross-section of contemporary art every summer. Book tickets for the 2013 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition now. Each year, a prominent sculpture greets visitors to the exhibition as they walk through the Royal Academy's great courtyard; last year Chris Wilkinson's 'From Landscape to Portrait', a twisting series of wooden frames, offered weary visitors a welcome seat. Co-ordinated by Royal Academicians Norman Ackroyd and Eva Jiricna, this year's annual show features works in painting, photography, sculpture, film and architecture, with artists including Grayson Parry, Michael Craig-Martin, Anthony Caro and Jock McFadyen, among others.
