ARTS THREAD has teamed up with ARTQUEST to bring you professional career advice. Here we look at writing an artist’s statement.

Matt Bucknall, one of the organising team behind the Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design Graphic Design degree show of 2007, shares with ARTS THREAD his top 6 tips on staging your own graduate exhibition.
