Mercer Chance, the gallery set up by Rachel Mercer and Michael Chance (both DY 2013), will be hosting its final exhibition before the gallery closes its doors at the end of the month. During the course of the last four years, the gallery has supported RDS alumni, offering them a space in which to exhibit and reflect on their work without commercial pressures. Over 60 exhibitions have taken place at the gallery, which became a valuable hub for discussion about contemporary drawing and painting. It will be sorely missed, not least by Rachel and Michael themselves! They would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to everyone that has exhibited, visited and supported the project. They are moving on to spend more time on their own painting practices and have both found studios in London. Alumni are invited to the Private View of Michael Chance's exhibition next week:
