Ian Hamilton Finlay

This exhibition will present works by Ian Hamilton Finlay (1925 – 2006), one of the most prominent post-war British artists, with a special focus on his printed projects.

Finlay was a poet and artist. His sculptures, stone works and neon signs combined language and landscape, and expanded the idea of how words can be used and distributed.

Along with an extensive selection of Finlay’s published works, prints and posters, magazines and books, the exhibition presents a series of interventions by contemporary artists and writers, including Will Holder, Christian Flamm, Beatrice Gibson and Jason Dodge, who reflect the artist’s ongoing influence today.
