The ING Discerning Eye Exhibition is a show of small works independently selected by six prominent figures from different areas of the art world: two artists, two collectors and two critics.Work is selected from open submission and also from artists invited by the individual selectors. Each section is hung separately to emphasise its own distinctive identity. The impression emerges of six small exhibitions within the whole.  DE Chairman John Penrose introduces the 2009 exhibition The exhibition provides an unusual opportunity for works by lesser-known artists to be hung alongside contributions from internationally recognised names.The selectors are solely responsible for their own selection. The only restrictions are limitation of size and to select at least 25% of their section from the open submission.  the 2009 selectorsARTISTS Gus Cummins RA ~ Painter Lincoln Seligman ~ Painter and sculptorCOLLECTORS Peter Bowles ~ Actor Laurence Llewelyn Bowen ~ Interior designer and TV & radio personalityCRITICS Julius Bryant ~ Keeper of Word and Image Dept, V&A Museum Jackie Wullschlager ~ Writer & chief art critic for the Financial Times the 2009 prizes
