Profiled: Materials and techniques in portraiture
Callendar House and The Park Gallery opened the 2007 season with a major new exhibition of works on loan from the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
With this collection of paintings, sculptures, prints and photographs dating from the 17th century through to present day, the exhibition invites the viewer to consider the different materials and techniques employed by portrait artists through the ages, and question how these affect our perception of the sitter.
The exhibition includes work by Allan Ramsay, William Strang, Elizabeth Blackadder, and Kenny Hunter, and features well known faces such as William Wallace, Donald Dewar and Jimmy Reid.
A full programme of talks and workshops has also been developed to complement the exhibition, including life drawing master-classes and the chance to take home a ‘new you’ by having your face superimposed onto one of SNPG’s most popular portraits.
The exhibition runs until 10 June 2007 in the Large Gallery at Callendar House, and to 13 May in The Park Gallery.
