The Poetry Club: Est.2012
Thursday 26th October marked the launch night of The Poetry Club: Est.2012, an exhibition celebrating over a decade of The Poetry Club, brought together by one of Scotland's leading contemporary artists, Jim Lambie, and SWG3 Founder and Director, Andrew Fleming-Brown.
A place of legends and I-was-there moments, The Poetry Club has established itself as a haven for alternative, underground culture since its opening in 2012. Its tiny stage has played host to the most cosmic of icons, on nights embedded in Glasgow cultural history. Where Patti Smith, Richard Hell, John Giorno, and Primal Scream have all shared centre stage with a host of other musicians, spoken word artists, and performers – and through a range of curated photography capturing moments from the major to the minor, the significant to the fleeting, The Poetry Club: est. 2012 exhibition brought together just over a decade of art, expression and counterculture featuring pictures from a host of people including Mark Dickie, Jason McPhail and others.
Thanks so much to everyone who attended the launch night, and visited the exhibition !!
