Michael Fullerton: Meaning Inc.

As part of Generation: 25 Years of Contemporary Art in Scotland, Glasgow Print Studio is delighted to present Meaning Inc., an exhibition of new and recent work from Glasgow based artist Michael Fullerton featuring portraits of figures “who embody political commitment or represent strong ideological positions.”

Meaning Inc. expands the artist’s ongoing investigation of media, technology, and justice with an exhibition that questions the social or civic relevance of art in the age of information and mass media.

Fullerton has made portraits of figures related in some way to issues of technology, communication and justice. They include Kim Dotcom, the controversial file-sharing entrepreneur charged by the United States with copyright infringements worth $500 million. Emory Douglas, who used printmaking to make propaganda images for the radical political group the Black Panthers, and Samuel Goldwyn, founder of the MGM film company, are also depicted. Closer to home, Fullerton has made a portrait of the current governor of Barlinnie Prison in Glasgow. Through paintings of these figures Fullerton reflects on the changing ways in which images are produced and shared. Who owns images and whom do they serve?
