SUMMARY:George Bain: The Continuous Line
DESCRIPTION:George Bain (1881-1968) was a visionary Scottish artist and educator who devoted his life to observing the world around him\, learning from it\, and sharing his insights through art. \nHis meticulous deconstruction of intricate Celtic designs not only reveals their construction and beauty but also encourages us to engage with this rich heritage in practical ways. \nThrough his work\, Bain shared his discoveries widely\, leaving a legacy that continues to guide and inspire artists today. \nAs you explore George’s work\, we invite you to consider the importance of drawing as an essential tool for shaping our understanding of the world. Drawing can unlock hidden potential\, capture fleeting moments\, clarify our thoughts\, and deepen our connections to the past\, present\, and future. \nAdditionally\, this exhibition highlights George’s connections to the Royal Scottish Academy\, making it a proud part of RSA200: Celebrating Together\, which commemorates the Academy’s remarkable 200-year history. \n  \nThe George Bain Collection features approximately 3\,000 items related to the artist and educator George Bain (1881 1968). This exhibition showcases a small selection of artworks and objects from the collection recognised as a Collection of National Significance to Scotland. \n  \n

SUMMARY:What lies beneath? Pictish Monsters and the Living Frame
DESCRIPTION:Find out all about Pictish monsters in this talk by Heather Pulliam\, Professor of Medieval Art at Edinburgh School of Art \n\n\n\n\nMedieval art is known for its monsters\, but Pictish art seems to take it to the next level. Drawn from her new book\, “Art\, Nature and the Body in Early Medieval Art” (Cambridge University Press\, 2026)\, Heather’s talk addresses the many questions raised by the monsters that crawl\, slither\, and climb across the sculptural surfaces of Pictish art. While her focus is primarily on sculpture\, she also considers the Book of Kells and the Book of Deer. The talk begins by asking what a monster is\, and what it means to be monstrous. It then turns to ask: What do Pictish monsters do for Pictish art? Why do they feature on so many monuments\, in so many positions on these monuments\, including places normally reserved in medieval art for the most sacred and divine figures? Finally\, it briefly considers how the settings of these monuments might help us better understand the role of monsters in Pictish art. \n\n\n\n\nThis lecture is our Annual Academic Lecture\, part of the Groam House Museum lecture series for 2026.
