Graysons Art Club : Exhibition Volume 3

Grayson’s Art Club: Exhibition Volume 3 was published in 2022 by Cornerhouse Publications to accompany the third series of the popular television program hosted by the artist Grayson Perry. The book serves as a permanent record of the submissions and featured artworks from the show, which emerged during a period of national lockdown in the United Kingdom to encourage public creativity. It reflects Perry’s philosophy that art is a democratic act accessible to everyone, regardless of formal training or professional background.

The volume features a selection of diverse works curated by Perry and his wife, Philippa Perry, with accompanying commentary from various contributors and guest artists. The design emphasizes the inclusive, kaleidoscopic nature of the television series, utilizing high-quality color reproductions to showcase a wide range of mediums including painting, ceramics, and needlework. Upon release, the book was received as a tangible extension of the show's goal to foster connection and artistic expression during a time of widespread social isolation.
