LONDON.- Russell Hill announced as overall winner of the Catlin Art Prize 2011, now celebrating its fifth year at The Tramshed, Shoreditch. To celebrate the fifth year of The Catlin Art Prize, the 2011 exhibition invited former winners and key artists from previous years to show alongside the fresh selection of recent graduates. This year, judges Julia Royse, consultant and curator, gallerist Simon Oldfield and collector Richard Greer chose Russell Hill, 22, as the winner for his installation Fabric Softeners. Art Catlin presented Russell with £5,000, an increased amount from last years prize and a mark of Catlins continued support of the emergent arts. We had an excellent trio of judges this year curator Julia Royse, gallerist Simon Oldfield and collector Richard Greer I enjoyed listening to them deliberate over the win
