Paisley Museum and Art Galleries being repaired, Paisley Art Institute will be using alternative venue of the Glasgow Art Club for the annual exhibition. Due to space restrictions, applications for entries are for members only. The exhibition will run from 28 December, 2023 to 3 February, 2024. Further details on hand-in are below.
WALL-BASED WORKS
The maximum height or width of wall-based works should be 5 feet. Because this venue is not as large as our home venue, some larger works may not be hung. Works should be suitably presented for the exhibition, no clips or metal frames. All works framed or unframed should be strong enough to hang.
SMALL WORKS
Only small works under 16×16 inches (total size framed or unframed) must be strung but please cover rings to avoid damaging other works.
SCULPTURE WORKS
The Glasgow Art Club is restricted from displaying free-standing sculptures as the venue is also used for dinners and entertainment.
Sculptural works must be of the scale that will not create a health and safety issue when displayed on a plinth (底座).
We do have a few plinths but if sculptors can supply their own plinth, this would be to their advantage.
HAND-IN
Works can only be handed in on the following dates.
Hand-In Dates 2023 | Sculpture Delivery Time | Wall-Based Work Delivery Time |
Thurs, 20 December | 11: 30 a. m. — 6: 00 p. m. | 6: 15 p. m. — 8: 30 p. m. |

【推荐1】Born in the Netherlands in 1853, Van Gogh led a simple life in a small town until the age of 16. He then left school and joined a firm of art dealers in the large city of The Hague. He eventually realized that dealing with others’ artwork was not his profession. His true love was to become an artist himself.
He devoted much of his time to learning the basic elements of drawing. Van Gogh believed that to become a great painter, one must first master the ability to draw. It was only after he was comfortable in this area that he began to use oil paints. That is when he developed a style and talent for color that made him one of the most respected artists of all time.
Van Gogh’s paintings are amazing representations of his view of the world. The colors jump off the canvas(画布), not only because of their brightness but also because of the brush strokes(笔画). Van Gogh avoided light, feathery strokes, which would portray(描写) typical subjects. Instead, he used his brush and oils to make layers that built the painting until it was almost three-dimensional.
Perhaps one of the most memorable examples of Van Gogh’s use of color and brush style is his painting The Starry Night. The sky swirls (打旋) across the canvas, while the stars shine with unearthly brightness. Each brush stroke creates the image of movement. Under the sky rests a village painted with smaller strokes and finer detail, giving the impression of peace. A large tree in the foreground suggests that the view is enjoyed from the top of a hill, which offers a glance of the beauty of the night sky. The Starry Night shows Van Gogh’s great ability to create a powerful image with simple subjects.
Van Gogh spent only the last ten years of his life painting. He is believed to have sold only one of the 900 paintings he created during those years. Yet Van Gogh today is considered one of the greatest artists of all time. His influence is obvious; many painters mimic his style and use of color. His artwork can be found in museums all over the world and is valued in the millions of dollars, an evidence for Vincent Van Gogh’s talent.
1. According to the text, Van Gogh learned how to paint by ___________.A.reading many books about art |
B.closely observing the world around him |
C.carefully studying the works of great artists |
D.acquiring basic techniques |

Teaching your child to paint shouldn’t be too expensive. Think about investing a little in some paint supplies for future endeavors(努力;活动).
