We were shown around the sculpture studios by Naill Mcdonald. We saw the exhibition of Jimmy Durham who had been doing a residency there. He had focussed on scottish history and created witty work on that theme with golf references reaccuring in most pieces. Duram regually collects things on the streers and likes to use things that are rugged and cheap in his work, which gives the objetcs more interest.
We were also shown around the actual studios and all the facilities there. Naill showed us his studio, it was a fair size but the whole building was really cold, I don't think I could have worked there all that happily. We really do take our college facilities for granted.
