    Mainstreaming the Equality Act Progress report on the delivery of the aims of the general duty of the Equality Act 2010 National Museums Scotland 2017 Published 28 April 2017 1 Welcome National Museums Scotland’s vision sets out our aspiration: “…Inspiring people, connecting Scotland to the world and the world to Scotland.” Visitors are at the heart of our work and ensuring all our visitors have an opportunity to engage with our collections; participate in our learning programmes and enjoy their experience is a responsibility to which we attach great importance. We are proud that our commitment has been reflected in our proven track record of providing wider access. Our service is realised through guiding strategies and policies and brought to life by the creativity, commitment and talent of our workforce, both paid and voluntary. I thank them all for their contribution to our visitor and stakeholder experiences. To build on our success we continue to lead and develop our staff and volunteers to realise their potential and the potential of National Museums Scotland. This is our third Mainstreaming Report and it outlines our approach to embedding equality and diversity in our day-to-day work, whilst harnessing the step changes made by some specific projects in relation to community engagement, digital access and capital project work in terms of access and engagement with our collections, and participation with our programmes. This report concludes the reporting period of our Equalities Outcomes 2013-2017 and the actions and activities we set ourselves four years ago. It shows how far we have come in terms of mainstreaming our equalities work within our processes and culture; provides reflection on recent consultation feedback and organisational data, and proposes our future Equalities Outcomes priorities for the period 2017-2021.

  • 8Pm Tramway, Glasgow Think of a Relationship As a Rhythm
    , 1975–76. COURTESY, 1975–76. OF THE ARTISTS ABYRINTHE L DOUBLE DOUBLE I, K ADA M HO T MARIA KLONARIS & KATERINA KATERINA & KLONARIS MARIA A M I F 2017 SAT 11 NOV SUN 12 Nov 10.30AM – 6PM 11A M – 8PM TRAMWAY, GLASGOW Think of a relationship as a rhythm. You list the generic activities that could comprise ours. We might eat, read, walk, watch, rest, even sleep together. More than these bare, shared facts, however, our association is a system of negotiation. It is shaped as much from stubbornness as generosity, comprised more of willfulness than compromise. As we begin to speak about programming this festival together, I tell you about a film from 1982, in which three women reflect on the breakdown of their romantic relationship, riffing off the genre of a melodrama. You respond with a text that describes two young girls rehearsing a sex scene from a Hollywood film in the bathroom of a suburban home. We exchange messages about the patterns of our days, about illness, tiredness, annoyances, heartache. I write to tell you that I am fed up with work, fed up with the pressure to produce, fed up with discussions about care taking place in institutions that do anything but that. Like other forms of minor speech, complaints carve out a kind of intimacy between us. But meeting together by a large expanse of water one day, we find ourselves talking about desire instead. Think of a relationship as a thing that need not – for anyway it never really does – begin or end with two.

  • Gagosian Gallery
    The Irish Times August 19, 2014 GAGOSIAN GALLERY The Artistic Vision of Scotland’s Golden Generation The quality and scale of Generation: 25 Years of Art in Scotland, which shows over 100 artists in over 60 venues, is impressive Declan Long ‘Pretty Much’ by Douglas Gordon This summer, in advance of Scotland’s independence vote, an outstanding example of independent Scottish thinking has been on show at Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art. Illuminating the ground floor of this grand neoclassical museum is Pretty Much Every Film and Video Work from 1992 to Now, an encyclopaedic survey of the art of Douglas Gordon, clustered and condensed as a single, elaborate installation. Blinking and blaring together in the darkened gallery are more than 100 television monitors. Each one offers an intense cinematic insight into the maverick imagination of this extravagantly inventive Glaswegian. Each one sits on a plinth made from a humble beer crate: global art market meets Glasgow flea market. It’s an apt combination – a pairing of the refined and the rough-edged – both in relation to the distinctive qualities of Gordon’s work and contemporary art from Scotland more generally. Gordon’s anthology contains a potent mixture of highbrow conceptualism and pop-cultural plundering (his most famous work, 24 Hour Psycho, stretches out Hitchcock’s classic chiller to an uncanny and agonising day-long duration). He synthesises references to cinema, music and literature with forceful, unsettling natural imagery, moving between disturbing psychological extremes of dark and light. His Goma megamix is an astonishing display of extraordinary creative diversity and edgy, out-of-the-ordinary artistic effort.

  • James Dalrymple (1859 – 1934) Manager of Glasgow Corporation Tramways
    James Dalrymple (1859 – 1934) Manager of Glasgow Corporation Tramways 1859 Born at 3 Maskell Street, Chorlton on Medlock, Lancashire, 15th Sep.1859. Parents were James Dalrymple, draper, and Margaret Adams. Baptised : Greenheys United Presbyterian Church, Coupland Street, Hulme, 6th Nov.1859. 1861 Manchester Census : still living at 3 Maskell Street, Chorlton upon Medlock James Dalrymple, age 34, born Manchester, travelling draper, with wife Margaret, aged 34, born Scotland and son James Dalrymple, age 1, born Manchester. 1871 Girthon Census at Boreland of Girthon James Dalrymple, age 11, born England living with William Dalrymple, widower, age 72, born New Luce, Wigtownshire and William's son William, age 37, born England. They were both farmers. James is recorded as a nephew of William senior, but we believe this must be an error, and he is really a grandson of William senior and nephew of William junior. We don’t know why James came to live with his grandparents in Gatehouse, or what happened to his parents. 1880 After receiving schooling at Girthon Parish School, James joined the Union Bank of Scotland in Gatehouse (now the Bank of Fleet Hotel). The bank manager was William Cairns, who seems to have recognised James' abilities and encouraged him to apply for work in one of the bank's Glasgow branches. James is believed to have moved to Glasgow about 1880 (aged c.20) 1881 Glasgow, Barony Census : 196 North Street James Dalrymple, age 21, born England, bank clerk, lodging with the Stevenson family. 1881 James left the bank and moved to the office of the City Chamberlain of Glasgow.

  • Transport and Technology
    Transport and Technology Collections 1 Introduction The Transport and Technology Collections reflect the leading role played by Glasgow and the West of Scotland in advances made in scientific enquiry and industrial production. The technology collections were first developed for the opening of the City Industrial Museum in 1870. This was intended to highlight the output of Glasgow’s industries and included samples and models from the important chemical, textile, locomotive and shipbuilding firms in the area. There were also examples of innovations in the making of optical and scientific instruments and communications technology. The museum displayed Glasgow’s civic pride in its scientific and industrial achievements and provided a prestigious front window for its products. It also played an important didactic role in teaching Glasgow’s young citizens about engineering and technology. Many of the collections were loaned and often replaced by newer more impressive exhibits. Even items formally acquired into this collection were regarded with the same spirit of renewal and were often discarded in favour of more representative examples of modern industry. Although much has been lost there is still much of great interest that has survived from the early days of the museum. This is partly as a result of industrial failure when loaned material from failed companies was retained and eventually assimilated into the core collections. Such a direct relationship between the city’s industries and the museum collections gives them an added degree of significance. This is particularly true of the outstanding ship and marine engineering models. The Clyde was at the forefront of revolutionary change in the shipbuilding industry so not only is the collection a truly representative sample of the Clyde’s output, it also represents an important period of ship design and building that is unsurpassed anywhere in the world.
