Join us by Zoom as Tommy Zyw explores David Cook's exhibition Earth Shaker
We are delighted to present Earth Shaker, David Cook's fourth solo exhibition at The Scottish Gallery.
For this exhibition, the product of three years’ hard work, Cook has chosen to focus his energies on the wild, seaside garden in front of his cottage. The fertile grassy acre between the house and the rocky coast is a wilderness garden, enlivened with flotsam sculpture, thrumming with life and brilliant in colour in the summer. Flowers and long grasses grow untamed, threatening to engulf his studio. His paintings are made in rich impasto of oil paint, with a joyous freedom.
