About the Item

Andrew McIntosh is a Scottish artist originally from the Highlands and currently based in London. His paintings have the air of a Highland gothic mystery, but shot through with cosmic undercurrents. They often look to the Scottish landscape, capturing its drama in the Romantic tradition of painters such as Thomas Cole and Albert Bierstadt. Within these scenes Andrew adds elements of magical realism to plunder the imaginative potential of the wilderness. Unexplained celestial phenomena and electrical manifestations appear in deserted glens. Caravans are a recurring motif, along with dilapidated buildings and structures, often with one wall removed to reveal an incongruous other world within. What results are contemporary gothic landscapes as a form of Scottish noir. Andrew McIntosh was born in Grantown On Spey in the Highlands of Scotland in 1979. Following studies at Edinburgh’s Telford College 1997-99, he held his first solo exhibition at the Highland Mori museum in 2001. Since then he has exhibited widely across the UK, including at the Carnegie Club at Skibo castle in Sutherland, and the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London. In 2014 he won the Towry Award for Best in Show at the National Open Art Competition at Somerset House in London, and was shortlisted for the John Moores Painting Prize at the Walker Art Museum in Liverpool, as well as being selected to exhibit in Here Today in London, curated by Artwise. Following his solo exhibition ‘You Were Shit in the 80s’ at James Freeman Gallery in 2015, his large painting ‘RA!’ was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 2016, and he was nominated for the Pulse Art Prize in Miami 2016. Collections include Simmons Simmons; The Ivy; Vanessa Branson (founder of the Marrakech Biennale); and Mr Mrs Barney Moores (family of John Moores).
