Turner Prize-nominated artist Isaac Julien brings his acclaimed film installation Lessons of the Hour – Frederick Douglass (2019) to Perth Museum.
The exhibition explores the time the abolitionist and human rights campaigner Frederick Douglass spent in Scotland, and Perthshire’s connections to the transatlantic slave trade. Perth is the first venue on the tour, and the only place to see the work in Scotland.
Over 20 works by Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) are on display, spanning three decades, including paintings, prints, and his unique kinetic and light works. At the heart of the presentation are a selection of the artist’s renowned Glut sculptures, including three newly gifted by the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation to mark 100 years since the artist’s birth.
