This screenprint was part of Alisdair Gray's final GPS exhibition, 'Omnium Gatherum' which ran from 07 February - 12 April 2020. Glasgow Print Studio’s long association with Alasdair Gray goes back to the late seventies and in 1981 in celebration of the publication of the seminal novel, Lanark, we published a series of lithographs that were used as illustrations within the book. More recently GPS has published 30 screenprints going back to 2007 with the series, The Scots Hippo, a reimagining of the T S Elliot poem, The Hippopotamus.
