COULD YOU SPOT a David Bailey at 20 paces? What about a Tracy Emin?

The 20th RCA Secret puts art collectors to the test in its annual exhibition postcard-sized artworks made by professional artists, designers and illustrators, including alumni and postgraduate students at London’s Royal College of Art. Each postcard costs £45 and a maximum of four may be purchased per person – which could see a lucky collector make a very shrewd investment.

The catch?

Each postcard is signed only on the back, so collectors can’t know the identity of the artist until they have made their purchases.

The exhibition will be open from 14–22 March 11am–6pm
