21 Woodlands Terrace, Glasgow G3

Saturday 1 Mar 2008 - Saturday 29 Mar 2008

An exhibition of diverse works by a number of international artists brought together by Common Guild Director, Katrina Brown and artist Douglas Gordon.

Conceived as the introduction to a new series of exhibitions to be presented at 21 Woodlands Terrace, the exhibition’s title is borrowed from poet Emily Dickinson via artist Roni Horn. The exhibition will reference many inter-connections and relationships: between past, present and future or between words and images.

The building is a grand residential Victorian property to the west of the city centre, with a rare and remarkable outlook. Exhibitions will take place over two floors and visitors will also have access to a unique library, designed by artist Andrew Miller.

Open Thursday – Saturday 12 noon – 7 pm or by appointment

The exhibition is supported by: Scottish Arts Council, Glasgow City Council and The Elephant Trust.
