Edinburgh Art Festival
31 July - 31 August 2008
The Edinburgh Art Festival is an affiliation of institutions, galleries and artist-led organisations with a shared commitment to celebrating, presenting and communicating art of the highest quality in Edinburgh during the August festivals. The Edinburgh Art Festival brings together the individual strengths of the city’s visual arts organizations to create a critical mass of activity within a festival framework. By bringing together an international season of visual arts for a wide public, the festival achieves a higher visibility for the participating arts organisations and artists, creating a stronger context for their work.
The 2007 festival highlights included 2 major Picasso exhibitions, an Andy Warhol showcase, as well as work from well-known UK artists, Nathan Cole, Alex Hartley and John Stezaker.
The 2008 programme will be available from mid-June.
