Sir William Gillies, The Visionary Painter
Donnie Munro, On the Bay
Oliver Cook, Momentary Flow
1 - 24 June

Sir William Gillies is widely regarded as one of Scotland’s greatest landscape and still life painters, and has been one of the most important artists to The Scottish Gallery, holding seven solo exhibitions during his lifetime. 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of Gillies’ death and this exhibition highlights the subtle complexity and lyrical observations in his work.

Donnie Munro is welcomed back to the gallery, and at the heart of this exhibition of new paintings will be a series of large works featuring the view from the artist’s home on Skye, looking across Loch Chaluim Chille at Portree.

The gallery’s second solo exhibition from Oliver Cook shows how the artist uses everyday objects such as vases and bowls as a starting point. His work explores the relationship between light and the translucent properties of the stone looking at the notion of movement.
