Rogues’ Gallery

An exhibition from Scotland’s celebrated artist John Byrne will be on view in the Academicians’ Gallery. Titled Rogues’ Gallery, it presents a cast of motley characters, fashioned from memories of Byrne’s childhood growing up in Paisley combined with his vast imagination. Focusing on those who are often overlooked, Byrne’s ‘rogues’ are brought from the periphery of society into central view and feature self-portraits with Byrne presenting himself in numerous disguises including that of a mariner and a secret agent.

17- 23 November at The Royal Scottish Academy.
