During his residency Dr Dominic Paterson will focus on researching and writing a series of monographic essays which will make up a new book-length publication. The book will address questions of history, memory and materiality, with a particular focus on sculptural practice and on Glasgow as a context for artistic production. Amongst those artists Paterson will include are a number of current and former GSS Members.

Dr Dominic Paterson teaches modern and contemporary art and theory at the University of Glasgow. Amongst his publications are essays on artists such as Christine Borland, Lucy Gunning, Claire Barclay, Martin Soto Climent, Kate Davis and Faith Wilding. He is a regular contributor to MAP magazine (http://mapmagazine.co.uk) and in 2010 organised a series of film screenings and talks for Glasgow International Festival of Visual Art.
