Date story posted - 09 April 2004
Review by Moira Jeffrey, The Herald 09 April 2004. Change Will Do You Good Year after year I find myself banging on about whether that dull old dog The Royal Scottish Academy is ever going to learn some new tricks. So, it's fascinating to discover that the answer is yes – and that the evidence lies in Gallery IV of this year's annual show. The RSA was founded in 1826, not too long before the invention of photography, an art form in which Scotland would excel with the world famous Hill and Adamson. It has sure taken its time, but this year, for the first time in its history, the academy, traditionally the province of painters, sculptors, architects and, later, printmakers, is showing photographs.

Review by Duncan MacMillan. The Scotsman, 06. April 2004 178th RSA Annual Exhibition 2004 **** ROYAL SCOTTISH ACADEMY, EDINBURGH Meanwhile the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) annual show comes round again - for the 178th time, in fact. There is a difference this year and one to celebrate. The Academy is back in the RSA, its home, and not only in the main rooms, but also in the new suite of rooms downstairs that have been created by the Playfair Project from the old Academy store rooms. It is historic, too, to see the Academy in these rooms for their footprint is in part that of the original Academy exhibition rooms that were lost when the new galleries were built within the shell of the old building 100 years ago. The return home is not without its difficulties. The National Gallery, as manager of the building, maintains an iron grip on what happens there.
