Curated by Nicola Atkinson of Beautiful Materials Design Studio and Alan Grieve of Workspace Dunfermline.

BERRYLAW PERSPECTIVE exhibition was part of the public artwork ‘Walking in the town as if you were wandering in landscape’ by Nicola Atkinson, artist of the Beautiful Materials Design Studio, which took Andrew Blair’s painting as a starting point, creating a new perspective from Bruce Street as if you were wandering in a landscape.

The old studio of celebrated 19th century Dunfermline artist Andrew Blair (situated at 9 Bruce Street) provides the perfect setting for displaying one of his landscape paintings, ‘Dunfermline from the North-West’. Painted in 1860, the work is in the collection of the Andrew Carnegie Birthplace Museum. The painting shows the town from the perspective of Berrylaw Hill. When standing at that vantage point you can see almost the exact same view that he captured in the work.

Over the past few months we have invited the public to be inspired by Andrew Blair’s painting ‘Dunfermline from the North-West’ 1860 and create their own landscape artwork in nature from the perspective of Berrylaw Hill Dunfermline.

You can see all 50 artworks submitted by artists in the Andrew Carnegie Birthplace Museum!
