artistic dates for your diary

The future is difficult to see and I don't want to give away too many details. Works are still being created, but here are some dates for your 2014 diary. 

March 22nd until 3rd May 2014

Patricia Cain - Kirstie Cohen - Henry Fraser

In this exhibition, which opens Kilmorack Gallery's season, landscapes, people and structures are laid bare by three artists with rising reputations.

PATRICIA CAIN
PATRICIA CAIN won both the Threadneedle prize and the Aspect prize in 2010 and had a solo exhibition in Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Gallery in 2011 with architecturally inspired paintings and drawings of Glasgow’s shipyards. Work this March’s exhibition is the result of a three month residency in Wilhelmina Barns-Grahams studio outside St Andrews and her move to a new rural home.

KIRSTIE COHEN
When an artist like KIRSTIE COHEN paints, something greater than ourselves is revealed: a moment of vastness in a changing sky, the roll of the sea. Landscape painting as its best, as with Kirstie Cohen’s work, opens a window to this more powerful sublime world. 



HENRY FRASER
A HENRY FRASER portrait captures something unique. He sees through the chinks in our armour, past our physical bodies, to the soul that lies beneath, and the result is poignant and beautiful. He paints with looseness and confidence. What at first appears naive, at deeper inspection shows subtle mastery of his brush. A single gesture contains everything; the sadness or joy in an eye or a determined jutting jaw. His skill and vision draw you and make you quest for the mystery Fraser has seen.

Eugenia Vronskaya: accidentally deliberate

Cafetiere by the tap - EUGENIA VRONSKAYA
We are very excited by this exhibition and the work Vronskaya is currently painting for this solo exhibition. Put this date in your diary.


-----------
Eugenia Vronskaya was an icon painter at 13 years old, moved from Russia to the UK in 1990 and now works from her studio in the highlands, where she produces some of the most remarkable poignant paintings to be seen.  Her work gives us more than just her skills of observation, painting and drawing. It also has great emotional depth and without this quality, the self-expression, an art work is hollow. Vronskaya’s paintings are always autobiographical and replete with substance.

15th August until 13th September

Seven sculptors and their drawings

GERALD LAING - drawing for Bank Street, London
Some of the finest drawings are made by sculptors. And most of the best sculptors draw. This exhibition will bring together the rare drawings and sculpture of seven renowned Scottish artists. We will release further details shortly but this promises to be a deeply fascinating exhibition. 


15th August until 13th September

Robert McAulay – Illona Morrice – Peter White

While autumn begins to bite we will show work two painters, Robert McAulay and PETER WHITE and sculptor Illona Morrice. Please join our mailing list if you don’t wish to miss-out. 







We will release more information and images when works are completed and exhibitions approach.
