SUMMARY:Glasgow International 2018 at Glasgow Botanic Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Glasgow International is Scotland’s largest festival for contemporary art\, taking place over three weeks every two years across the city of Glasgow. \n  \n \n  \n  \nThere are a number of exhibits in the Gardens and they will be on display from 20th April to the 7th May. \n  \nMore on Glasgow International \nGlasgow International today announces that it will return for its eighth edition in 2018\, under the direction of Richard Parry\, who joins the festival after serving as Curator-Director of the Grundy Art Gallery in Blackpool. Parry will bring his unique vision to the event\, which as one of the UK’s largest and most influential art festivals showcases Glasgow as an important location for the production and display of contemporary visual art.\nTaking place in various venues and locations across the city\, including its major spaces\, the Festival will again be comprised of an ambitious programme\, which includes exhibitions\, events\, talks\, performances and projects\, by prominent and emerging Scottish and international artists. Continuing to grow with each edition\, Glasgow International hosts an ambitious programme of new works\, site-specific commissions\, new venues\, exhibitions and events and showcases the city as one of the world’s most important creative hubs for contemporary visual art.\nRichard Parry brings a wealth of experience to his new role as Director of Glasgow International. As Curator-Director of the Grundy Art Gallery between 2013 and 2017\, he curated and organised over 25 exhibitions. Following the group exhibition Sensory Systems (2015)\, Parry was awarded an Art Fund New Collecting Award and in 2016 curated NEON: The Charged Line\, the largest exhibition of neon-based art yet staged in the UK.\nParry’s appointment follows the departure of Sarah McCrory\, who directed the 2014 and 2016 editions\, and was successful in doubling the amount of programming for the Festival\, with the last Glasgow International showing work by more than 220 of the best local and international artists at 75 locations across the city of Glasgow. \n  \n  \n
