As the city welcomes visitors from around the globe for the world-famous Edinburgh Festival which celebrate arts and culture, we’re unveiling a free art exhibition in partnership with &Gallery, showcasing work from two brilliant local artists, Anna Somerville and Emily Moore.
Emily Moore’s paintings focus on the stark facades of modern tower blocks, inspired in part by a trip to Berlin, and latterly, places closer to home. The sharp lines of these modernist forms are overlaid with intricate patterns of leaves and tree branches.
Passionate about paint, mark making and colour, Anna Somerville creates expressive, painterly landscapes that conjure up hazy memories of places that she has visited. Her pieces on display include ‘Highland Scape’, ‘Rapolano Neon Scape’ and ‘Tuscan Scape’.
Both artists are graduates from Edinburgh College of Art and regularly exhibit with &Gallery.
The Edinburgh Festival is a time for the world to celebrate our city, its culture, and the arts. It’s important for us to make the most of this special time, giving local artists access to our guests and ensuring our guests are surrounded by wonderful talent.
Our latest exhibition will be displayed throughout the ground floor of our hotel including the lobby, The Garden as well as our bar and restaurant area.
Guests and members of the public are invited to see Emily and Anna’s work on display until November.
