YnY’s first day in Cupar !

Its a bonnie day in Fife. I begin my day full of confidence after all I have a tremendous print by Amy Todman to hand out to the good people of Cupar. Some accept this freebie with gushing enthusiasm others however say “no thank you” before I have a chance to speak! The fools! They could of had a limited edition work of art! I am only down for a moment however as before too long another happy face lights up as they are given Amy’s beautiful print. I make them aware we are handing out a different  artwork everyday.

The YYADA’s are here! FREE ART ! FREE ART !

Amy Todman

rocks, rocks

Amy graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in 2003 with a degree in fine art. Since then she has exhibited in group and solo shows, working in installation, drawing and print, and has just completed an MLitt in History of Collecting and Collections at Glasgow University.

The commission for the Yuck ’n Yum Art Distribution Unit has given her the opportunity to reflect on her dissertation research in her artistic practice, by producing an edition of 100 screen-prints inspired both by visits to Cupar and research into the natural history of Scotland.

LOOK OUT FOR OUR YYADA

All YYADA's will be wearing a black skip hat, rain jacket and yuck 'n yum knapsack. Seek them out and get some free art.

Yuck ’n Yum Art Distribution Unit



At this year’s festival we will be giving away free art.
We have commissioned artists, who are past contributors to the zine, to create limited-run special edition artworks ranging from pots of marmalade to prints.





The artists are: Luke Collins, Sanna Dyker, Derek Lodge, Anna Orton, Sam Spreckley, Andrew Maclean, Amy Todman, Kevin McPhee, Nadia Rossi, Ben Robinson, Ewan Manson and Gayle Meikle. 



The works will be distributed to the general public by the Yuck ‘n Yum Art Distribution Agents [YYADA for short]. The distribution team is comprised of volunteers, who will shuttle between the festival venues, each easily identifiable by their Yuck ‘n Yum branded skip hat, knapsack and sunny disposition. The agents will hand out the free art whilst informing the public of the ‘artist of the day’ and the festival.
