Exhibition: The Force and Form of Memory

Compass Gallery, Glasgow: 28th October – 19th November 2011
National Football Museum Hampden: 20 November – January 2012
Touring throughout Scotland – September 2012

Alzheimer Scotland and Compass Gallery selected 76 Contemporary artists from across Scotland, and some from further afield, to create a special work exploring the theme of Memory.

This fascinating exhibition provides a unique opportunity to gain an insight into their individual responses to the theme, creating works for a lasting sensory and visual experience.

Today, memory loss-related illness touches all of us in one way or another. This exhibition is designed to stimulate and inspire the creative minds of both the artists and the public, raising awareness of the importance of our memories for recording our experiences and forming our identity.

All works are for sale, raising funds for Alzheimer Scotland.
