Reclaimed: The Second Life of Sculpture

About

Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art is in its sixth year and is renowned for being diverse, challenging and appealing to both international and local audiences. During Glasgow International 2014, The Briggait presents Reclaimed: The Second Life of Sculpture, our most ambitious exhibition to date. The exhibition features work held in long-term storage, including historical, modern and contemporary pieces, some of which have not been seen by the public for over two decades. Works are displayed within a specially constructed sculptural landscape filling the Briggait's 1873 Hall in its entirety. The exhibition includes the work of some of the UK's most interesting contemporary artists alongside important historical works, some of which will be very familiar! Reclaimed is a unique, must-see exhibition celebrating a multitude of sculptural practices, whilst addressing significant issues surrounding the production and collection of three dimensional work.
