GI2010 – Fiona Tan: Tomorrow

GI2010 – Fiona Tan: Tomorrow
16 April – 27 September 2010
Space: Gallery 1

Tomorrow is a two-screen video installation, made in 2005 in Sweden, by the internationally renowned artist Fiona Tan. This was the first exhibition of Tan’s work in Scotland and was is complemented by an extensive programme of events for young people.

This exhibition was part of the supported programme for the Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art, a biennial festival & celebration of the visual arts in Glasgow which ran from 16 April to 3 May 2010. The video documents high-school students in a school on the outskirts of Stockholm, Sweden. Children from many different cultural backgrounds attend this school. As the title of the work suggests, it can be considered a portrait of a future generation of adults.
