RSA Friends Excursion: Dundee: Doug Cocker RSA studio visit and The Lamb Gallery
Join us for an excursion to Dundee where we will enjoy a behind the scenes visit the studio of acclaimed sculptor Doug Cocker RSA and visit the Lamb Gallery at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design (DJCAD).
Doug Cocker RSA comes from a long line of farmers and blacksmiths. His work speaks of the history of the rural Perthshire landscape he grew up in. It is unsurprising that nature takes centre stage in his work. His material is mainly wood, in many shapes and forms. He builds his pieces with exact precision developing and forming movement from static material. We'll visit his studio in Lundie, outside Dundee which is comprised of a workshop, drawing studio, and art stores. This is a rare look behind the scenes at the studio of one of Scotlands leading sculptors.
We'll also visit the Lamb Gallery at DJCAD to view Dundee and the RSA, an exhibition part of RSA200: Celebrating Together, showcasing work by Academicians who were born in, studied or taught in Dundee. While on the campus we will also have the opportunity to tour and view other work from the university's collection.
Tickets available exclusively to RSA Friends
