The Minister for Culture, Steven Linares, says he is delighted to announce that the artworks submitted to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition by local artists Karl Ullger and Shane Dalmedo, have qualified for the next round in the pre-selection.

The Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition 2015, now in its 247th year, receives well over 10,000 entries, of which only 4,000 are chosen to qualify for the second round.

The works will now be sent to the Royal Academy where they will proceed to the next qualifying round. The Ministry of Culture says it is pleased to be supporting these artists by reimbursing the cost of transporting the works to the UK.

The Minister offers his heartiest congratulations to Shane and Karl, and wishes them the best of luck for the next round.
