Andrew Grassie
Date Location
Survey exhibition of recent and new work, showcasing Grassie's deceptive photo-realist paintings of Modernist exhibitions. An exploration of the derivative nature of contemporary art which may amuse theorists but alienate the casual viewer.
1 Aug–27 Sep 10.00am–5.00; Sun 2.00–5.00 Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh
Billboard for Edinburgh: Mark Wallinger
Date Location
The punchy sentence 'MARK WALLINGER IS INNOCENT', shouted out from the well placed Ingleby Billboard, is intriguing, but with little in-gallery material to explain it, it appears to be a meaningless pharse, disappointing from such an overtly political artist.
1 Aug–24 Sep Ingleby Gallery, Edinburgh
From Kyoto to Carbeth: Poems & plants from the hills
Date Location
Work developed from conversations by Takaya Fujii and Gerry Loose whilst walking ?together', in Kyoto and Scotland. Takaya selected a plant with had personal and cultural significance from the hills for each month of the year, Gerry responded by making poems. 'Part of the Edinburgh Art Festival'
1 Aug–12 Sep Mon–Fri 11.00am–6.00; Sat 1.00–5.00 Scottish Poetry Library, Edinburgh
Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller
Date Location
A first chance for Scottish audiences to experience the work of one of the most internationally-respected artist partnerships. Six different, immersive installation works which combine image, video, sound and music, as well as architectural and sculptural installation, draw audiences into a highly credible fictional world and evoke a sense of childlike wonder. Go early, and allow yourself at least an hour. Sheer delight.
31 Jul–28 Sep Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh
Kay Rosen: Huen
Date Location
The first Scottish showing of work by American artist Kay Rosen is the inaugural exhibition at the Ingleby Gallery's new main space. Playful, but ultimately underwhelming, text pictures.
31 Jul–24 Sep Mon–Wed & Fri 10.00am–6.00; Thu 10.00am–7.00; Sat 10.00am–5.00 Ingleby Gallery, Edinburgh
Richard Hamilton: Protest Pictures
Date Location
Retrospective giving an (incomplete) idea of just how influential the great British pop artist has been. His critiques of the way mass media communicates politics might now seem commonplace, but this is a good reminder of just who pioneered those techniques in the first place.
Tuesdays–Sundays 10.00am–5.30 Royal Botanic Garden (Inverleith House), Edinburgh
Susan Collis
Date Location
Cheeky installation by the upcoming Scottish artist playing on the building site from which the Ingleby Gallery has recently emerged. What appear to be rawl plugs and paint spatters are revealed to be precious stones.
31 Jul–24 Sep Ingleby Gallery, Edinburgh
Teeth
Date Location
In a Texan small town high-schooler Dawn (Weixler) finds her pledged commitment to virginity threatened by a number of prospective lovers, and more so by set of razor-sharp teeth between her legs (vagina dentata). Despite a half hour of well-observed high-school alienation, 'Teeth' falls to the level of crude horror comedy long before the film's final cheap shot.
8 Sep Mon 7.30 Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy
