COLLECTION:
A DAY DOWN A GOLDMINE
A Day Down a Goldmine began as an installation consisting of "humorous sculpture with a deeply serious vein running through it" exhibited in 1982 at Glasgow's Third Eye Centre. Taking a leaf out of Joseph Beuys' book, and building on his own passion for performing, George had the idea of augmenting the exhibition with a theatrical experience.
The prints remained in George's hands until they passed into the possession of his daughters, Louise and Elaine, at the time of his death in 2012. Thanks to the George Wyllie Estate, a limited number of the screenprints have now been made available to purchase.
