'Beacon Arts Centre's 2025 exhibition programme guarantees the presentation of exciting and diverse work by local, national and international artists. During the summer we will be having an Open Exhibition providing the opportunity for anyone living in Inverclyde to have their artwork exhibited.' - Fraser Taylor, Guest Curator
by Fiona Robertson
On display 17 May - 20 Jun
Our lives, work and experiences are increasingly mediated – and distorted – by a digital world of images stripped of their materiality. In response to this Fiona Robertson fore fronts the tactile, the handmade and the intuitive. Her subject-matter is drawn from the wanderings of the unconscious and subconscious, exploring the transient impressions of memories and dreams. This new body of work includes a series of 27 etchings and a selection of oil paintings based on her notebook drawings.
Join us at the Beacon for an Artist Talk and Exhibition Walkthrough with Fiona Robertson on Wednesday 28 May, 11am.
FREE admission/advanced booking required.
At Beacon Arts Centre we host a constantly changing programme of inspiring and thought-provoking exhibitions in our light and airy upstairs gallery space. Guest Curator Fraser Taylor presents a year-round programme by local, national and international artists – some exclusive to the Beacon.
Fraser studied at Glasgow School of Art and the Royal College of Art. His internationally exhibited work includes large-scale sculptural installations, set design, print media, filmmaking and painting. From 2001 to 2017 he was a Visiting Artist and Adjunct Professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and in 2017 was awarded an Honorary Professorship from Glasgow School of Art.
