Time Out says
Tue Feb 26 2013
To celebrate its twentieth anniversary, RCA Secret, the Royal College of Art's annual fundraising exhibition and sale, returns in 2013 with a new spring date and a new venue (the RCA gallery in Battersea). The sale of postcard-size artworks, each priced at £45, includes drawings, paintings and photographs by RCA students, along with work by established artists, illustrators and designers and famous names – this year including Paula Rego, Julian Opie, David Bailey, Paul Smith, Orla Kiely and Manolo Blahnik. The secret is that, since the signature is on the back of the postcard, you won't know for certain whose work you're buying until you've paid for it. Viewing takes place online and at the gallery from March 14 to 22. Postcards go on sale on March 23 on a first-come, first-served basis – visitors can buy a maximum of four cards each. You'll need an RCA Secret collector's number to purchase a card. To register as a buyer visit www.rca.ac.uk/secret. Once you've registered for the sale you can take part in a raffle to win a position in the first 50 places in the queue. Have a peek at this year's postcards here
