More than Illustration...

presented a surprisingly original collection of works by emerging and well established local and international artists with a graphic edge:
Angela Gasseling, Max Hierro, Laura Murray, Zoe Mufham and
Eduardo Rubio.
A collection of works that hightlighted the artists' superb drawing skills and took them to a higher level by exploring with mixed media and colour.
The exhibition launched on 16th of August 2008 in Joseph Pearce's Bar.

Summer 2008

Our Summer Exhibition 2008 launched on the 3rd of July 2008 with paintings by Edinburgh based artist Jill Ashforth; inspired by Skye, Orkney and Shetlands.
The collection really captured the special quality of the northern lights, and smelt of sea and summer...Scottish style.

Out of This World

In March of 2008 we recruited Spanish illustrator Max Hierro and invited everyone to the launch of the exhibition...It read like this.


I am pleased to invite you to our first ever exhibition with works by Spanish illustrator Max Hierro: "Out of this world"
It may not feel like spring has quite arrived yet, but Hierro's atmospheric illustrations are guaranteed to cheer you up!

The date is next Saturday 29th of March from 10.30 a.m until 12.00 p.m @ Joseph Pearce's Bar, in Elm Row, Edinburgh.
There will be coffee and, for the more adventurous of you, some cava compliments of the Spanish Consulate (from 11.00 am)

And if you missed Kelvin Burgoyne's exhibition @ Pearce's, you have another chance to see his amazing watercolors.
"High Summer Storm Over..." will be on display at our new venue, the Jazz Bar, in Chambers Street
until the 15th of May.

See you next Saturday!!

Contemporary Cave Paintings

In February 2008 we launched an exhibition with new paintings by Edwin Slater.
A stunning collection of works that have been varnished and fired again and again to adquire an almost sculptural, 3 dimensional quality and challenge the past of time.
