I Say Nothing

In October 2018 Christine Borland unveils a new artwork at Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, Glasgow, Scotland, as part of the 14–18 NOW World War I centenary commemorations. The artwork is co-commissioned by Glasgow Museums and 14–18 NOW and supported by the Art Fund. This highly illustrated book showcases the new, commissioned artwork and gives an insight into Borland’s research and practice. It includes an interview with the artist and an essay by Professor Andrew Patrizio reflecting on Borland’s career to date and placing the new work in context. The artist shares her research and personal response to the objects she selected from over 2,000 in Glasgow Museums’ World War I collection, and which have variously informed the new artwork. The publication comprehensively documents Borland’s artistic processes, the commission and the finished artwork installed in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Glasgow, Scotland.
