Glasgow Print Studio presents an exhibition of works by internationally renowned artist-printmaker John Mackechnie MBE RSA, including screenprint editions made over the past ten years alongside paintings made during lockdown.



Covering subject matter across Hebridean waters, skyscraper reflections, and American urban landscapes, Mackechnie employs multi-layer screenprint techniques to create nuanced images with visceral, tactile qualities. His own source photographic compositions, employing a patient process of capturing and editing, are integral to the finished prints.

Glasgow Print Studio was founded in 1972 as an artist led initiative providing facilities and workshop space to artists using fine art printmaking. Now, as an internationally acclaimed centre of excellence in fine art printmaking, Glasgow Print Studio promotes contemporary and innovative printmaking through supporting artists, exhibitions, learning and conservation.
