David Nolan Gallery presents “The garden became my study,” an exhibition of work by Ian Hamilton Finlay (1925-2006).The exhibition brings together works associated with the artist’s most celebrated achievement - Little Sparta, a classical garden that he built on a farm in Stonypath near Edinburgh. Created over four decades, Little Sparta fuses many of Finlay’s artistic ideas, from the French revolution, to the classical world, and nature. The display will include works incorporating sculpture in bronze, wood, ceramic, and stone, as well as three text-based wall paintings. This is the artist’s ninth exhibition at the gallery, and has been organized in collaboration with Pia Simig and the Estate of Ian Hamilton Finlay.
