The Scottish Gallery

Contemporary Art Since 1842

Angie Lewin

Cultivated Colour

1 October 2026 - 24 October 2026

This exhibition of over fifty new watercolours celebrates the flowers Lewin grows in her Scottish hillside garden, with the help of a trusty Shetland-designed polytunnel well suited to such an exposed location. Bright, exotic dahlias, parrot tulips, agapanthus and pelargoniums appear in still life compositions alongside her eclectic collection of ceramics and decorative papers, their patterns flowing and mingling with leaves, stems and flowers.

Vicky Lindo and Bill Brookes

I’m Feeling Hopeful

1 October 2026 - 24 October 2026

Vicky Lindo and Bill Brookes have worked together in Bideford, North Devon, since 2013. Their practice is immediately recognisable, densely worked with drawing, pattern, words, animals and human figures. Alongside them, Lindo’s paintings reveal another part of the same process.

Wilhelmina Barns-Graham

Printed Rhythms | Prints 1992-2004

1 October 2026 - 24 October 2026

This exhibition focuses on Barns-Graham’s late period printmaking, these joyous works showing the full extent of her creativity and exuberance; for her printmaking was a liberating experience where she was able to ‘let rip’ (as she put it).

A short break in North Berwick | Artist’s haven

Christina Jansen recently enjoyed a short break in North Berwick. Just 31 minutes by train from Edinburgh, yet it feels a world away. Off season, with beautiful weather, there was plenty to enjoy, including long coastal walks with Stanley.
