DON’T MISS…

Tacita Dean

Fruitmarket Gallery, July 7-September 30

This gallery consistently hosts some of the best shows to be seen anywhere in the UK. Tacita Dean’s show, based on performance, follows three solo exhibitions in London earlier this year, at the Royal Academy of Arts, National Portrait Gallery and National Gallery.

Jupiter Artland

Jupiter Artland, Wilkieston, until September 30 (exhibition dates vary)

Phyllida Barlow, Ollie Dook and Joana Vasconcelos make up the formidable line-up for Jupiter’s new commissions, which join the sculpture park’s expanding collection of works. Already open for the season, a day at Jupiter is a brilliant and calming escape from the city.

Rembrandt: Britain’s Discovery Of The Master Scottish National Gallery, July 7-October 14

The focus of this exhibition is the Dutch Master’s relationship with Britain – how our taste for his work has changed, and his strong influence on British art over the past 400 years. The exhibition won’t be shown anywhere else, so catch it while it’s here.

Dozen

The Number Shop, July 27-September 2

This dynamic artist-run space, set up by an Edinburgh College of Art graduate in a former council building, is home to a number of resident studio holders who have made a diverse range of work for this series of festival exhibitions.

Victoria Crowe: Beyond Likeness

Scottish National Portrait Gallery, until November 18 This show tells the story of the artist’s professional and personal life through a selection of her portraits. The works include depictions of figures from the world of arts and science, including Sir Peter Higgs and the poet Kathleen Raine.

The Days Never Seem The Same

Stills Gallery, July 27-October 28

The festival show in this sometimes overlooked photography gallery on Cockburn Street brings together the work of Gunnie Moberg and Margaret Tait, who both shared a strong connection to Orkney, with a large selection of historically important photographs and films.
