David Osbaldeston: A Pastiche of Different Techniques: First Floor Gallery

A Pastiche of Different Techniques is an exhibition of new work by David Osbaldeston at Glasgow Print Studio featuring a series of works evolved from his recent exhibition at Moon Grove in Manchester early last year. 

The British artist will be showing two distinct bodies of work featuring new large-scale etchings alongside sequences of screen prints on linen and paper, as well as other works in oil on paper and an archive of book works. 

Responding to the legacies of conceptualism and the artist as publisher, the artist draws upon properties of objecthood and materiality using methods of collage as a medium for transmission to activate the spatial characteristics between print and sculpture.

David Osbaldeston was born in 1969 in Northampton and lives and works between Scotland and Manchester. His works are held in various public institutions including the Whitworth Art Gallery, Tate Collection and Library, and the British Council Collection. He is currently Reader in Fine Art at Manchester School of Art, and was formerly lecturer in Painting and Printmaking at Glasgow School of Art. He is represented by Matt's Gallery, London.
