From the Studio showcase at SWG3's Acid Bar

We are delighted to be taking over the Acid Bar to showcase a collection of work from some of Scotland’s most exciting contemporary artists.

SWG3’s Acid Bar reopens after 18 months. Our showcase includes a selection of painted photographs by David James Grinly being shown for the first time from his two collections, Revival and Revolt. Describing his work as ‘devotional’, David’s projects take many years to complete, as he shies away from commercial approaches to artistic production and exhibition. This collection offers a rare opportunity to buy some of this reclusive artist’s work.

Joining David will be works from screen printer Thom Rees, collaborative duo Two Step (Beth Shapeero and Fraser Taylor), performance, soundscapes and digital imagery artist Michelle Hannah, and intricate abstract artist Jamie Johnson.

A home for food, music and art, the Acid Bar will also be hosting an exciting residency from Glasgow foodie favourites Five March, who will take over the space with their new pop up Go Sangatsu every Thu, Fri and Sat. Read more and book your table here.

The exhibition is free to enter and can be viewed daily Monday to Friday: 10am - 6pm & Saturday: 12pm - 6pm. Full exhibition details, location and other info is available here.
