Sam visits Tramway

Sam went to Tramway today and loved Dougls's new installation of 24 Hour Psycho.

"I spent ages there and realised that the query about the crows videos was answered in the Stuart Morgan essay (seen as harbingers of evil since mediaeval times) and amazingly I arrived during the scene in the hotel where Sam and Lila search for the money...on the wall are two paintings/prints of crows!!!! He's a smart guy that Douglas..."

"Also hadn't realied what crooked teeth Janet Leigh had, for a Hollywood star, wouldn't be allowed now...."

"I was underwhelmed by the Christoph Buchel show; far too much of monumental self aggrandisement I thought , theatrical and over the top; it must have bust Tramway's budget for years to come;give me Kabakov any day..."

AHM and Gi

AHM have been steadily working their way around Gi exhibitions.

It kicked off with the opening of David Shrigley's exhibition at Kelvingrove Art Gallery.

Once again, David was mesmerised by Douglas Gordon's '24 Hour Psycho' at Tramway, and was hugely impressed by LAST MAN OUT TURN OFF LIGHTS installation by Christoph Büchel in Tramway 2.

David also visited Bellahouston Park to see Speedwork, the steel structure produced by Jackie Donachie for the Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art.

AHM will be attending the Maria Thereza Alves Friday Event titled 'urgent and not so urgent possibilities'

This will take place on Friday 23rd April at 11am in the Glasgow Film Theatre (Gft) on Rose Street.
