Edinburgh Annuale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Annuale[1] is an art festival including Edinburgh galleries and art projects, especially those which promote local activity in the visual arts. Subverting Edinburgh's role of international arts host the Annuale promotes grass-roots visual arts operations, encouraging visitors to experience art in Edinburgh as it emerges.
Coinciding with the Edinburgh International Festival in August (although the 2007 Annuale takes place in April 07) The Annuale is co-ordinated by ARI The Embassy[2]with a programme including publication launches, live events and exhibitions. The first Edinburgh Annuale took place in August 2004 and included exhibitions at The Embassy [3], Wuthering Heights, Magnifitat[4], Totalkunst[5] and Aurora [6]. The festival now includes over 15 events and exhibitions and has some financial support from the Scottish Arts Council.
