The motion

That the Parliament recognises that a new exhibition celebrating 50 years of printmaking at Glasgow Print Studio is set to open at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum on 18 November 2022; understands that the exhibition, The Love of Print, will showcase artworks created by celebrated Scottish artists in the five decades since the studio was formed in 1972; notes that The Love of Print will bring together over 225 significant prints by 130 artists, which, it understands, collectively embodies a "who's who" of Scottish art over the last 50 years; believes that Glasgow Print Studio has an international reputation as a major contributor to contemporary printmaking and that, with facilities amongst the most sophisticated in Europe, it attracts artists from all over the world and provides a unique environment where famous names work alongside students and members, and acknowledges that each artist who is featured in The Love of Print has gifted a print that will be accessioned into Glasgow Museums Collection.
