Poetry Beyond Text Royal Scottish Academy Lower Galleries, The Mound, Princes Street, Edinburgh Exhibition: 12th November to 18th December 2011 This research project uses psychological, critical and creative methods to study how readers respond to the visual aspects of poetry. It involves specialists in English and Comparative Literature, Fine Art and Psychology. These include the shape of visual or concrete poetry (where words are arranged spatially in particular patterns on the page), the combination of poetry with images (in artists' books and prints), and the moving words and images found in digital poetry (a relatively new form of poetry which is usually web-based and often interactive). Poetry Beyond Text - Vision, Text & Cognition www.poetrybeyondtext.org/ Above: Three Little Words, screenprint, 76 x 56cm, Jim Carruth and Murray Robertson. Click here for more details. |

Impressit Scott Campbell, Stuart Duffin, Claire Forsyth, Rosalind Lawless, Ian McNicol, Murray Robertson. The Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts Kelly Gallery Exhibition: Saturday 12th March to Tuesday 5th April 2011 Opening times: Tuesday - Friday 10.30am - 5.00pm Saturday 10.30am -3.00pm By using the printmaker's broad vocabulary of mark-and image-making to create a visual language which reflects their interests, these six artists present works created with traditional, manipulated and new printmaking techniques. This consummate mastery of traditional skills alongside an experimental approach, becomes a consuming passion for the artists. As well as developing their individual and often innovative artistic practices, each artist fulfills the role of collaborator, editioner, and educator, championing printmaking as a vital means of artistic creation and expression. The term 'Impressit' comes from the Latin meaning "he (she) printed it", and is sometimes seen as Imp. written on a print. Event: The Art of the Master Printmaker Tuesday 4th April, 10.30 am. Stuart Duffin talks about his work and his role as a Master Printmaker. Tickets : £6.00 per person, £10.00 for 2 people. Booking essential. 2011 is the 150th anniversary of The Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts. The Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts Kelly Gallery, 118 Douglas Street, Glasgow G2 4ET Tel: 0141 248 6386 Email: gallery@royalglasgowinstitute.org www.royalglasgowinstitute.org |
