Urlar art exhibition at Edinburgh Ski Club

URLAR ART EXHIBITION EDINBURGH SKI CLUB, 2 HOWE ST.

2nd – 14th Sept 2017

Visit us: https://www.facebook.com/UrlarArtExhibition/

‘Ùrlar’ begins this Saturday the 2nd – 14th Sept at the Edinburgh Ski Club, 2 Howe St. New paintings by artists Jan Coventry from Portobello and Susan Dawson from the Isle of Skye. Ùrlar is Gaelic for ‘ground’ or ‘returning to a theme’.

Susan and Jan draw inspiration from the Scottish landscape near Edinburgh and in the West Highlands, continuously examining the themes of land and sea. They last exhibited together in Edinburgh in 1997 at the Patriothall Gallery, Stockbridge, so this is a special event which demonstrates the maturing of two artists, both working outdoors against the backdrop of the land and seascapes of Scotland, during the first decades of the 21st century.
