THE COVE PARK COMMISSION

In 2006 the first Cove Park Commission was awarded to visual artist Simon Starling. The commission enabled the artist to create a major new project, Autoxylopyrocycloboros. To date, this outstanding project has been exhibited at Heidelberg Kunstverein and Casey Kaplan Gallery, New York. A limited edition original artwork by Simon Starling is included in the Cove Park Portfolio.

Details of future Cove Park Commissions will be announced later this year.

THE FIRST COVE PARK PORTFOLIO

In 2006, seven of the UK's leading visual artists were commissioned by Cove Park to produce a new limited edition print. This work is available for sale either collectively in a high-quality presentation portfolio or individually. Investing in the Portfolio is both an opportunity to acquire works by key contemporary artists, including 2005 Turner Prize winner Simon Starling and 2007 nominee Nathan Coley, and to support Cove Park's internationally renowned residency programme.

All the artists are closely connected with the west of Scotland and were commissioned to produce a new print which takes our location - its landscape, history and context - as its starting point.
