As part of my post at Talbot Rice Gallery, I worked on the project to develop a series of events led by Tim Rollins and K.O.S. to coincide with their exhibition The Black Spot.  For more details about the exhibition scroll further down.

For more information about the seminar run in partnership with ArtWorks Scotland  including films, interviews and essays check this blog.

For more details about the Young Persons project: Art and Knowledge workshops at Talbot Rice Gallery have a look at the Talbot Rice Gallery website.

Today we are going to make art and we are also going to make history
Tim Rollins
Showing for the first time in Scotland, Tim Rollins and K.O.S. presented an exhibition including new work and a series of Art and Knowledge Workshops. Coming to Edinburgh in 2012 direct from the first Frieze New York, the collective’s literary and music inspired work continues to make waves within contemporary art. Surveying their work at Frieze, Simon Schama commented that, “combining instruction in reading and writing with collaborative art-making has resulted in some work of spectacular radiance as well as social energy”.

The exhibition title, The Black Spot, is taken from Stevenson’s Treasure Island, the classic adventure story that has inspired a new work for Talbot Rice. The Black Spot is a summons to audiences to reinvigorate a belief in the power of art to change lives.
