Simon Periton At The Mod. Inst.

Simon Periton’s show at the Modern Insti­tute is an inter­est­ing one. Rather than his usual cut-​outs, he’s mostly show­ing por­traits made by spray­ing paint through his usual cut-​outs. They’re stud­ies of a sort, rather than a new direc­tion, which might be a good thing—I wasn’t entirely con­vinced, and thought the best piece on show was this one in Periton’s sig­na­ture style:

I’ve posted about Simon before: back in 2003 I inter­viewed him in advance of a show at Inver­leith House.

The cur­rent show is on until Feb­ru­ary 24th; my review will run in The Herald this Friday.
