Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts
Situated on Douglas Street in Glasgow City Centre, the Kelly Gallery hosts a running programme of exhibitions and events.The city had numerous theatres, concert halls and libraries, but no regular exhibitions for the works of contemporary painters and sculptors.The governing body (council) of the institute decided that it should open its reach to encompass not only local artists but also the best in modern painting from the whole of Britain and beyond.From this period up until the outbreak of World War I, in Britain the institute was second only to the Royal Academy in the diversity of work on show.It continued to attract painters from the south: both the older established "Glasgow boys" such as Sir John Lavery (RA), George Henry (RA), David Gauld, Stuart Park, James Guthrie, Edward Arthur Walton, Edward Atkinson Hornel etc., but also younger artist such as Samuel Peploe, Leslie Hunter and Francis Cadell who had connections with the art of pre-war Paris and the paintings of Matisse and Picasso.
