Murray Robertson
Uncharted 1985-2025: Printmaking, Maps & Travels
Exhibition Runs: 08 February - 22 March
Preview: Friday 07 February, 6-8pm
An exhibition that features works from Murray Robertson’s years at Glasgow Print Studio and follows the development of his practice as punctuated and influenced by the range of national and international printmaking projects he has participated in over the past four decades.
As a practicing artist and Master Printer at Glasgow Print Studio, Robertson has been keenly involved in the development of the studios’ international relations with printmaking workshops and artists around the world, living and working for extended periods of time in diverse locations such as Germany, Japan, India, Finland, Mexico, Ireland and closer to home in Scotland on the Isle of Skye and the Outer Hebrides. As the title of the exhibition suggests these travels were in the main to destinations, countries and cultures with which the artist had no previous direct experience.
Robertson studied at Glasgow School of Art and maintains an interest in traditional fine art and printmaking. Originally working as the Lithographic Studio Printer at Glasgow Print Studio Robertson now concentrates on the research and application of new technologies, specifically digital imaging and printing. This influences current professional practice in the role of Master Printer at GPS managing the Digital Imaging Suite and disseminating that knowledge to others and as an individual artist.
Robertson’s career has evolved in tandem with, and is a reflection of, the growth of the Glasgow Print Studio’s influence within the Scottish visual arts industry and its reputation as a major national and international centre for excellence over the years promoting contemporary and innovative printmaking.
The exhibition focuses on the development of Robertson’s work over the years in a wide range of printmaking mediums including lithography, etching, screenprinting, woodcut and digital and in relation to the projects, residencies and exchanges undertaken during this time.
