France-Lise McGurn @ Alison Jacques Gallery
5 May 2017 - 27 May 2017
A solo project by Glasgow-based artist France-Lise McGurn who exhibits six new paintings along with a site-specific wall painting in “Archaos”.
McGurn’s paintings and drawings grow out of her personal archive of collected imagery found in film, art, advertising and television. Often working directly onto walls and floors, McGurn is also interested in the history of mural painting, from the domestic wall paintings of Bloomsbury and her mother, artist Rita McGurn, to the swinging ‘Christy Girls’ of American artist Howard Chandler Christy.
The title for this show comes from a 1990s-era club in central Glasgow called Archaos, famed for its double bed centrepiece.
