'Beacon Arts Centre's 2025 exhibition programme guarantees the presentation of exciting and diverse work by local, national and international artists. During the summer we will be having an Open Exhibition providing the opportunity for anyone living in Inverclyde to have their artwork exhibited. Dates will be announced soon.' - Fraser Taylor, Guest Curator
by Lilian Evans
On display 22 Feb - 29 Mar
Lilian Evans’ transdisciplinary practice is a sensual exploration into the expanded field of painting, confronting the medium which she finds herself monotonously committed to. Through the physical manipulation of waste materials, she constructs large-scale draped formations which interrogate and penetrate the medium. The process of making, and the works’ themselves, are characterised by the love, lust and longing she feels for her materials. Thus this exhibition presents her as she is - the lover.
At Beacon Arts Centre we host a constantly changing programme of inspiring and thought-provoking exhibitions in our light and airy upstairs gallery space. Guest Curator Fraser Taylor presents a year-round programme by local, national and international artists – some exclusive to the Beacon.
Fraser studied at Glasgow School of Art and the Royal College of Art. His internationally exhibited work includes large-scale sculptural installations, set design, print media, filmmaking and painting. From 2001 to 2017 he was a Visiting Artist and Adjunct Professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and in 2017 was awarded an Honorary Professorship from Glasgow School of Art.
