Glasgow Boys come home
James Guthrie – A Hind’s Daughter
A most worthwhile exhibition to visit this summer is “Pioneering Painters: The Glasgow Boys 1880–1900″
Kelvingove Art Gallery presents the first major exhibition devoted to this influential group of artists since 1968. It will be the definitive Glasgow Boys exhibition, comprising around 100 oil paintings and 50 works on paper.
Until 27 September
Tickets £5 (£3 concessions)
Children and young people under 16 go free
“All the important artists associated with the group, including James Guthrie, EA Hornel, George Henry, Joseph Crawhall and Arthur Melville are represented.
Works from Glasgow Museums’ collections will sit alongside other major pictures brought together from public and private collections across the country.
The exhibition will celebrate the group and review its legacy. A condensed version of the exhibition will later tour to the Royal Academy of Arts in London.”
It’s on now – haste ye there !
