Situated in the mezzanine area of the restaurant in Hope Street, the gallery will display monthly exhibitions by a range of photographers, printmakers, illustrators and experimental artists.
Johanna Larson, the gallery’s curator says: “This offers a great opportunity for photographers and artists alike to show their work in a prime city centre spot, with excellent facilities for hosting a fabulous preview party! Future exhibitors include a host of very different Glasgow photographers but we also have a few guest appearances from London and Stockholm planned.
Artists and photographers interested in putting on their own exhibition can contact Johanna directly for more information. Please email gallery@intermediascotland.com

Thema Berlin
7 February - 5 March 2008
Black & white photography
“These images of Berlin were taken in April 2005. The idea came from an earlier visit to that city which saw the regeneration going on after the downfall of the wall. The images are a snapshot of the life in the City of Berlin.”
