Originally built as a fruit and vegetable market in 1938, The Fruitmarket Gallery has been operating as a space for presenting art since 1974. Under the creative directorship of Fiona Bradley, since 2003 the Gallery has presented solo exhibitions of work by artists as internationally significant as Louise Bourgeois, Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller, Martin Creed, Willie Doherty, Eva Hesse, Gabriel Orozco, Dieter Roth, Fred Sandback, Roman Signer and Fred Tomaselli. We have also created high profile opportunities for artists who have developed their practice in Scotland: Claire Barclay, Christine Borland, Nathan Coley, Louise Hopkins, Callum Innes, Toby Paterson, Lucy Skaer and Tony Swain, ensuring an international platform for home grown talent.
