Since 1999, House for an Art Lover has promoted, funded and established partnerships to deliver several public art projects within the park, usually through competitions open to artists, designers and architects across Scotland. Blurring the lines between art, architecture and nature, these projects have been carried out in partnership with Glasgow City Council’s Department of Land & Environmental Services (LES).
Art Park
A different perspective
“Reason informed by emotion, expressed in beauty, elevated by earnestness, lightened by humour – that is the ideal that should guide all artists.”
Charles Rennie Mackintosh
Prominent artists and practitioners have contributed including Henry Coombes, Jimmy Cosgrove, Jackie Donachie, Doug Cocker, Pete Bevan, Paul Cosgrove, Gareth Hoskins, Gross Max, JM Architects, Tassie Thomson, Lorraine Aaron, Ganesh Gohain, GalGael and Kenny Hunter. The complement of works now forms the nucleus of an Art Park, which was recognised in 2009 by the Scottish Design Awards Public Realm/Landscaping category.
