An exhibition which opens tonight (Friday) at Limousine Bull.  ”Asmita Sarkar and Katarina Chomova have left home and are making art in an alien place. One of the dominant themes of the show is how marks, patterns and gesture depict pleasure and pain, hopes and fear.”

Peacock Visual Arts‘ open exhibition is back after a two-year break, and while there will be plenty on show from established artists, the most interesting stuff may well be from those of whom we know very little.

It kicks-off from 6-8pm on Friday 11 November with an open-to-all wee shindig, complete with mulled wine and mince pies.  Hmmm, sounds suspiciously Christmassy.  A full six weeks before Christmas.  Ach well, might as well start as you mean to go on…

Screenprint: “Evermore” by David McCracken

Two new exhibitions open at Peacock Visual Arts this weekend: Inchoate Landscapes, a new suite of prints (pictured below) from recognised Scottish artist Toby Paterson and Black and White, a selection of monochrome work by the likes of John Bellany and David Shrigley. Previews for both from 6-8pm on Friday 9 September with all welcome…

The third annual Fabric of the Land exhibition is underway. Seeking to explore the links between art and science, the theme of this year’s show is “Elements” and features 68 creative works by artists from around the UK. It’s also a good excuse to have a nose around the university (especially the new library building, which opens next month) before the students arrive…

The WLD/WLVS folks present a new exhibition from Aberdeen artists Stu Ford and Stu Allan. Two Stus. Stwo. See? So, Stu stuff, Sunday. Sweet.

OK, enough S’s. We’ve heard a rumour that some free drinkies from Brewdog and anCnoc whisky may well be on offer too, making this a pretty damn good way to spend your Sunday evening…

A new exhibition of works about drawing as a time-based medium from Nottingham-based artist Pete McPartlan. Preview from 7pm on Friday 5 August at Limousine Bull. Expect the kind of thing you see below. Anyone else making a “static” noise while you look at it? Just me then? OK…

A double opening on Friday from 6pm: Natalie McIlroy’s Migrate, Replicate which features large-scale video projections of Scottish landscapes (below, until 27 August) and Drawing Connections, a series of prints from Hannah Redpath (until 30 July).

Yez indeed. It’z hard to rezizt the temptation to zwap every “S” for a “Z” but I shall try…

It’s a new exhibition at Project Slogan, you can see who’s involved on the rather natty poster featuring a surprised/scary cat/panther below. The eagle-eyed among you may also notice the name of anCnoc whisky on there too, which means there just might be the chance to have a wee sample of their wares at the opening on Friday while you check out the show. Or zhow. Or zomething…

A preview of a collaborative exhibition featuring new work from local artists in response to the excellent, weird electronica of Fiona Soe Paing. At 6pm on Wednesday Fiona will perform a piece featuring music, projections and live vocals, all of which which is guaranteed to make post-work/tea-time that wee bit more interesting. The exhibition itself then runs until Sunday 29 May.

Moving from its previous home in Belmont Street, alternative arts, crafts and design fair Tea Cosy hits Rosemount as part of the area’s Winter Weekend. The quality of stuff on offer at these events is usually amazing, so it’s the perfect place for some Christmas shopping (listen to me, all weekend supplement-like).

There’s the added bonus of a pop-up print shop from Peacock Visual Arts too, I’m also prepared to bet that fake snow on the windows will not be needed to create a genuine ‘wintry’ vibe. We appear to have that covered…
