Broad Horizons: Dovecot Polymaths
For the first quarter of 2014 Dovecot intends to host an exhibition of works 鈥 past and present 鈥 which it has produced in association with some of the most influential and multi-talented artists who have worked with the Studios in recent years.
The exhibition will expand the stories behind Dovecot鈥檚 collaborations with varied creative outputs from Edward Bawden, John Byrne, Patrick Caulfield, Alasdair Gray and David Poston. These collaborations have produced fine tapestries and rugs for which the Studios are well known and respected. Yet the many and diverse facets of these creative minds mean that the collaborations have also produced amongst other things some experimental jewellery and a large scale public commissions. As well as celebrating the breadth of ambitious output from Dovecot Studios the exhibition also looks to the future; to possible directions for new collaborations and to the ideas yet to be realised that may still have their day to shine.
