This June, The Scottish Gallery celebrates the life and work of one of Scotland’s most-loved artists in a major retrospective show James Morrison A Celebration 1932 - 2020. The exhibition, held two years after his death, will take over both floors of The Gallery and will present works from the entirety of his artistic career which spanned seven decades. Morrison’s distinctive technique and vision made him one of the most recognisable Scottish artists of the last fifty years, credited with helping to reinvigorate landscape painting in Scotland. Our exhibition will also be supported by the family archive, making this a very personal insight into the life and work of James Morrison.
Over an eminent career, landscape painter James Morrison enjoyed a remarkable and lengthy association with The Scottish Gallery from 1959 to 2020. The successful relationship between artist and gallery allowed Morrison to retire from teaching at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee, in 1987, and concentrate on painting full-time.
