    Media Release 25 July 2019 From Claire Francis Phone: 0141 287 5548/ 07393 287295 Email: [email protected] GLASGOW MUSEUMS TACKLES GENDER EQUALITY IN CONTEMPORARY ART COLLECTION WITH NEW ACQUISITIONS BY LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL FEMALE ARTISTS Glasgow Museums is delighted to announce 14 recent acquisitions for the city’s fine art collection which include sculpture, video, painting and works on paper by artists Sara Barker, Kate Charlesworth, Michelle Hannah, Sharon Hayes, Winnie Herbstein, Mandy McIntosh and the Feegie Needlers, Carol Rhodes, Kate V Robertson, Anne Robinson, Siân Robinson Davies and Camara Taylor. Acquired as part of a significant strand of Glasgow Museums collecting approach, developed in 2015 to address gender inequality, these works make an unequivocal statement about the value and quality of work by contemporary women and non-binary artists. The new acquisitions increase the number of works by women in the Glasgow Museums’ fine art collection, which already includes internationally renowned artists Karla Black, Christine Borland Anne Collier, Jacqueline Donachie, Jenny Holzer, Barbara Kruger, Victoria Morton, Charlotte Prodger and Hito Steyerl. These recent acquisitions have been made possible through the support of a number of grant funders and organisations supporting the development of public collections. Of particular importance is acquisition of the capsule collection of work by Carol Rhodes (1959 -2018) which includes the painting Land Levels and Rises. Although Rhodes was one of the most respected and admired painters in Scotland, her work was until now not represented in the civic collection of Glasgow, the city where she lived and worked. The acquisition of this painting, and a subsequent generous gift of a framed drawing and three prints, acknowledge her contribution to visual art in the city and her standing as a key British painter of the late 20th and early 21st century.

Dejardin ISBN 9781785511769 Publisher Scala Arts & Heritage Publishers Ltd Binding Paperback / softback Size 190 mm x 165 mm Pages 80 Pages Illustrations 40 color, b&w Price £12.95 A selection of highlights from the McMichael Canadian Art Collection Celebrates the Canadian spirit and landscape through luminous artworks from Tom Thomson, the Group of Seven and many historical and contemporary Indigenous artists The story of each artwork is revealed in Ian Dejardin's engaging, personable style Part of the successful Director's Choice series The McMichael Canadian Art Collection has a unique mandate to celebrate the art of Canada, which it does within a great building in beautiful grounds overlooking the Humber River Valley. Originally a home completed in 1954 for entrepreneur Robert McMichael and his wife Signe, the building became an unofficial gallery when they began allowing passers-by and school parties inside to view their art collection. In 1965 they took the visionary step of donating their home, collection and land to the Province of Ontario and in 1966 the McMichael officially opened to the public. The permanent collection now consists of over 6,400 artworks. The iconic Canadian landscape artist Tom Thomson (1877-1917) features prominently, as do his colleagues the Group of Seven and their contemporaries. Historic and contemporary Indigenous art accounts for over a third of the total collection and is celebrated in the Gallery's dynamic exhibition program.

    Angela Jarman Curriculum Vitae Born 1971, London, England 1990-1993 West Surrey College of Art & Design, Farnham, BA (Hons) Glass 1993-1995 Assistant to Colin Reid, Gloucestershire 1995-2000 Assistant to Tessa Clegg and Diana Hobson, London 1999-2001 Royal College of Art, London, MA Glass Working in London Childhood influences permeate Angela Jarman’s work; influences such as nature trails and television programmes, garden ponds and the mini-ecosystems illuminated by the microscope in biology class. Her interest in Freud’s “uncanny” is also very evident as she explores “…ideas relating to feelings invoked in the viewer”…to…”create pieces which have a sense of beauty, but which also have a quality about them which makes them slightly strange and disturbing, a lurking sense of unease, something uncomfortably sinister.” Using the lost wax casting technique, Angela creates sculpture in mainly colourless glass, including black, which she views as the ultimate absence of colour. Having established her vocabulary of form, she now incorporates metal elements into her sculptures, which highlight their petrified organicness.

  • Carol Research Submission
    THE GLASGOW SCHOOL OF ART RESEARCH EXCELLENCE FRAMEWORK SUBMISSION The Ground Around group exhibition contribution Author/Creator Carol Rhodes (Painting/Printmaking) The Ground Around, June 6 to July 11, 2010, a collective, cross-media and cross-generational exhibition at Vilma Gold gallery, London, curated by Charles Asprey, exploring themes of environment, psychology and the land. OUTPUT Carol Rhodes, Pond Area, 2009, oil on board, 50 x 57 cm (exh. Vilma Gold, London, 2010) Carol Rhodes, Hillside, 2009, oil on board, 28 x 42 cm (exh. Vilma Gold, London, 2010) Rhodes showed two paintings in the context of a multi-media, cross-generational exhibition (http://www.vilmagold.com/newpages/previous/groundaround.htm). Themes were engaged in various ways across the artists' works: ground, depicted literally in the gritty surface of ‘Slag Heap’ by Prunella Clough and the ‘avalanche’ of Wolfgang Tillmans, reminds viewers of the energy and beauty contained within the Earth; Dan Peterman and Isa Genzken choose to examine this area more intimately by focusing on the nature of the material both under and on the surface of their respective studio floors, while the experience of the muddy intractability of trench warfare provides the starting point for Paul Nash’s pastel of 1917. Waseem Ahmed’s contemplative suicide bomber and Ian Hamilton Finlay’s use of Nazi-era iconography, equate illusions of paradise and gardening with terror and blitzkrieg, while Manfred Pernice’s ocean-going buoy seems to have been just dumped onto land after a mythical storm, a beachcomber’s trophy. The selection of these works for an exhibition is in no way an attempt to represent a movement or style or suggest an inter-generational pattern spanning almost 100 years.
