Helen Flockhart CV
HELEN FLOCKHART Arusha Gallery | [email protected] | 0131 557 1412 BIOGRAPHY Following her attainment of a first-class undergraduate degree in painting at the Glasgow School of Art in 1984, Helen Flockhart took up postgraduate study with the British Council at the State Higher School of Fine Art in Poznan, Poland. Boasting an impressive resume of solo exhibitions, spanning both Scotland and England, as well as group shows in New York, Ontario, Rotterdam, London and Truro, Flockhart was recently awarded the Concept Fine Art Award (2016), the Royal Scottish Academy’s Maude Gemmel Hutchinson Prize (2012), and the Lyon and Turnbull Award presented by the Royal Glasgow Institute (2012). A fellow of the Glasgow Art Club (as of 1997), Flockhart’s works belong to such prestigious collections as the Fleming Collection, the Scottish Arts Council, Strathclyde University and the Lillie. Bill Hare, teaching fellow of Modern and Contemporary Scottish Art at the University of Edinburgh, praises her work. ‘Nobody paints like Helen Flockhart’, he writes: ‘here the mundane and the mythical are at one with each other’. Hers are works which break with established convention -- a blend of portrait and landscape, Flockhart’s paintings are verdant, fantastical paeans to that particularist genre of British myth making centered on pastures, mountains and divinity. Indeed, there is something Blakean about her work -- a warmth of vision borne of what appears simultaneous ancient and modern. EDUCATION 1985-1986 Studied painting at the State Higher School of -

James Morrison Decades
JAMES MORRISON DECADES JAMES MORRISON DECADES 6 to 23 January 2017 16 Dundas Street · Edinburgh EH3 6HZ +44 (0) 131 558 1200 [email protected] www.scottish-gallery.co.uk PREFACE James Morrison had his first exhibition with The Scottish Gallery in 1959 and this show of new and some earlier work will be his twenty-fourth with us. The presumption must be that if a relationship between a gallery and an artist works it will persist, but also that in selecting its artists for exhibition the gallery is not influenced by what isà la mode, in a world constantly over-heated with wolfish interest in novelty. Instead the gallery should support and trust an artist in their endeavour while the artist will gain momentum from the process of exhibition, contemplation and renewal of work. In this way, generations of art lovers have been introduced to Morrison and over the decades as his work has developed many have continued their interest and enriched their collections with works as physically disparate as The Gorbals and Ellesmere Island and as psychologically separate as Notre Dame Cathedral and the battlefields of the Somme. Today, physical challenges have arrived uninvited and been overcome – the central motif of the artist, an inner eye that can recognise universal truths in nature, is unaltered and as striking and original as it was in 1959. Guy PEPloE 2 3 INTRODUCTION The retrospective exhibition at the Fleming Gallery in London such as Connonsyth (2009) would be augmented with more studied in 2013 brought together a collection of Morrison’s work from his elements painted later in the studio. -
