Studies in Photography is pleased to announce its first exhibition of the year, Ten Men & Other Stories, by Edinburgh artist Robin Gillanders. The exhibition will feature his semi-autobiographical work Ten Men, a series of head studies using analogue photography techniques and  a self-reflection on the identity of the aging artist. We will also be hosting 30 of his portraits that reflect a photographic career spanning from 1970-2025, with many familiar faces such as William McIlvanney (writer), Dylis Rose (writer), Tam Dalyell (politician) and Louisa Burnett-Hall (painter).
