Scottish Works — new to Edinburgh in September

A series of limited edition giclee prints on canvas based on original paintings first exhibited at the Fraser Gallery, St. Andrews, will be on view at Gleneagles Townhouse, St Andrew Square, Edinburgh from Tues. 5th Sept. — Sat. 30th September 2023. Unique amongst contemporary British artists Paul Yates has sustained a highly original and compelling creative output across, poetry, painting and film-making for over four decades. His poetry has been translated into several languages, his films have won various international awards and his paintings feature in important private, public and royal collections. Recently one of his paintings was acquired for the legendary La Colombe d’Or collection in the south of France. Yates has a high cull rate and works often remain in the studio for years awaiting just the right brush stroke or mark-making to bring them ‘into land’ as Yates is won’t to say. On his mother’s side Yates’s great grandfather, James Graham, emigrated from Scotland to Kilkeel in Northern Ireland in the 1880’s. Yates grew up hearing fireside tales of feats of derring-do by the first Marquis of Montrose, incantations for curses and charms and the fairy ways of the Grey Folk. <a href="https://medium.com/@m.c.wilson/scotish-works-new-to-edinburgh-in-september-470417b2dfcc">Visit Now</a>
