Last week at GPS, three new exhibitions opened highlighting new works by Philip Reeves, Jila Peacock and Bronwen Sleigh.

Philip Reeves
Glasgow Print Studio is delighted to showcase a new collection of works on paper by undoubtedly one of the most talented Scottish artists. Philip Reeves works the “real” surface, not the illusionistic one of painting; not the literal one of sculpture. Reeves is a master of both Intaglio printmaking and collage.
Glasgow is indebted to his commitment to and influence in facilitating and maintaining traditional printmaking of the highest standard.

Jila Peacock
Ten Poems from Hafez
Jila peacock will be exhibiting a suite of screenprints and a hand printed book of animal shape poems in Farsi calligraphy with new English translations. This artists book in a limited edition of 50, aims to show an artistic response to the world of Hafez's symbolism, making visual translations of some of his poems using the ancient Persian technique of figural calligraphy to make new shape poems

Bronwen Sleigh
A first solo show by Glasgow based artist Bronwen Sleigh. Her artwork explores the relationship between the natural environment and the industrial architecture within it. Through the use of mixed media and printmaking techniques she aims to draw attention to these structures as a contrasting, yet integral part of the surrounding landscape.
