On 28th May a selection of work from Futureproof 2017 opens at Scotland House in Brussels, in honour of Scotland’s Year of Young People. The exhibition will be opened by Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon in a lunchtime reception to mark the official opening of the Scottish Government's enhanced presence in Brussels. 

Scotland House stated: 'Scotland has had a long-established presence in Brussels, including almost 20 years in Scotland House at Rond-Point Schuman. In line with the Scottish Government’s newly-established network across the EU in London, Dublin, Berlin, and shortly, Paris, we have renewed our own Scotland House Brussels to provide us with an even more effective platform to support our collaborative approach to working with Scottish, EU and International stakeholders. It shows Scotland remains committed to playing an active role in Europe.'

This selection includes work from Anne Mie Bak Andersen, Clare Hutchison, Evonne Bain, Gareth and Gavin Bragdon, Katie Harris-McLeod, Leanne Glass, Linn Lundin, Matthew Buick and Ryan McCann, all graduates in 2017 of Scottish art schools and universities.
