Biennial visual arts festival in Glasgow, Scotland
This article is about the visual arts festival. For Glasgow International Airport, see Glasgow Airport.
Glasgow International (GI) is a biennial visual arts festival that takes place in Glasgow, Scotland. While Glasgow has a thriving contemporary art scene of its own, GI offers a platform to artists from other countries as well,[1] showcasing the best of both local and international contemporary art.[2] The festival started in 2005.[3]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and especially its impact on the arts, the 2020 edition of the GI was postponed.[4] The ninth edition of GI, opening in 2021, presented a hybrid of in person and online exhibitions and events, including 38 exhibitions in 27 venues across Glasgow.[5] In 2021 the Commissioned Programme included works by Jenkin van Zyl, Yuko Mohri, Ana Mazzei, Sarah Forrest, Nep Sidhu, and France-Lise McGurn.[5]
GI is curating Scotland's contribution to the Venice Biennale in 2022. Scotland will be represented by Alberta Whittle.[6]
