Artist and researcher Ingrid Pollard works with communities, both historic and contemporary, to explore representation and history with reference to race and difference. Ingrid Pollard uses different photographic processes alongside printmaking, artist books, installation, video and audio to shed new light on important subjects. Following a residency in 2019 this solo exhibition will reveal her responses to the fascinating materials held in the Lesbian archive at GWL. The new works offer a vital challenge to the ongoing marginalisation and erasure of LGBTQ+ history and culture.
Join us for the preview of Ingrid Pollard’s new exhibition, proudly commissioned by GWL and part of Glasgow International 2020. Alongside an introduction to the work this event will include a performance curated by Ingrid to mark the occasion.
Find out more about the solo exhibition here and book on to the Artist’s Talk on Thursday 30th April here.
