Graeme Todd An artist primarily concerned with the creation of landscapes, this is an exciting opportunity to see an extraordinary suite of new screenprints by Graeme Todd, who is one of Scotland’s foremost contemporary artists. These prints were commissioned and published by Edinburgh Printmakers. These prints will be exhibited alongside a series of recent small paintings and also paintings made during a 3 month residencey in Osaka, Japan in 2004. Julie Read Recent prints inspired by notions of identity and ideas of mapping the body, referring to the common metaphor of the body as a landscape. This exhibition reflects upon the historical tradition of portraiture, but does so with the absence of the major ingredient, the human face, instead using the body, language, land and memory as subject, exploring ideas of existence through subtle allusion. Hazel Restall A record of the building of the new Scottish Parliament at Holyrood in Edinburgh, an exciting piece of passing history captured by drawing, photography and printmaking. |
