On the night, Barbara will introduce the publication and share stories from her extraordinary career, followed by an open-floor conversation with the audience. The evening will conclude with the opportunity to have your copy signed by the artist.

 

Published earlier this year by the Royal Academy, this monograph spans decades of Rae’s practice, tracing her journeys from Scotland to Spain, France, Ireland, America, Italy, South Africa and into the polar regions. With texts by Duncan Macmillan and Robin McKie and an array of illustrations, the book offers an intimate look at Rae’s creative process.
