Anthony Schrag: Tourist in Residence
Date Location
Anthony Schrag's work has a subversive wit; an early video, Stairs, features him walking up the underside of a flight of stars in his block of flats, filmed with an upside-down video camera, so that a person walking down the stairs normally appears to be upside-down. Here he runs a series of participatory tours of Edinburgh which encourage you to interact with the city in different ways. Part of Edinburgh Art Festival. Booking is essential.
