15 August 2010 - Edinburgh

It being August, the Fringe is on in Edinburgh. We headed over to the National Gallery Of Modern Art in Edinburgh to see the "Another World" exhibition.



We then crossed the road to get to the Dean Gallery for a wee nosey, this sculpture sits outside in the gardens. Someone had put a penny just under his finger making it look like he was picking it up.



The Dean Gallery.



Bronze chap buried in the ground.



We then headed into Cowgate to see a graffiti exhibition. Well, we thought it was a graffiti exhibition. Turns out it was 3 or 4 large canvases in a makeshift outdoor cafe. Well worth the effort of fighting through the Fringe traffic to get there.



More of the graffiti.



And again.



Oh, and a cow.

15th August - Edinburgh - Heth day 9

Today we headed in to the fringe to go to see the artwork of Cliff Wright and also to attend a short drawing lesson by him. It wasn't in this church but we passed it on the way to the exhibition.



Heres my car waiting for us to return.

8th August - Edinburgh Fringe - Heth day 2

Today we headed in to Edinburgh for a kids show, "The Greatest Bubble Show On Earth". Basically a man blowing bubbles for an hour - what a way to make a living ehh?

First off though, we had to go to the Fringe Box Office to sort out the ticketing fiasco we've had for various shows this year - we wont be buying any tickets next year over the internet from this bunch of jokers I can tell you.



Then down to the venue which was a church, unfortunately there will be no healing during the fringe.



The view from the garden as we waited to go in to the show.



A locked girls entrance into what looked like a big wall.
