This year marks 10 years since we presented ‘The Inventors of Tradition II’, a collaborative project with .b which took place at the Palace of Art in Bellahouston Park, Glasgow.

Designed to house the city’s art collection, the Palace of Art is the only remaining building from the 1938 Empire Exhibition. In 1951, it was converted for community use and now operates as a public sports facility — a layered context that added to the project’s
exploration of cultural space and identity.

The exhibition examined the intersections of art, architecture, design, and subcultural identity. It was accompanied by an events programme, a publication, and the launch of a new fashion collection by Atelier E.B.

The publication is available to buy from Panel’s online shop (head to the link in our bio) and contains contributions from Mason Leaver-Yap, Michael Bracewell, Juliet Kinchin and Rebecca Gordon-Nesbitt.

This summer, as a part of artist presented ‘Alleus’, a performance in Castle Terrace Car Park, Edinburgh. In their first time working with live vocalists, they re-ordered the anti-immigration speech made by former Home Secretary Suella Braverman, spitting back at often ‘legitimised’ rhetoric performed by politicians and echoed through society in hate speech.

A script of ‘Alleus’ is featured in ‘Remnants – How you Reassemble a City’, a newspaper about Edinburgh and about the Festival: a collection of interviews and a re-assembly of maps, monuments and power structures, a consideration of active and meanwhile spaces, histories and of outlooks.

Download the newspaper now from Panel’s website. Printed copies available to order from the Panel shop.

New Journal post - hear from the MAKE with the Knit Shop Makers! 📖

Panel is partnering with and on ‘MAKE with the Knit Shop’, a two-year teacher development project designed to embed craft approaches in schools. Working with six primary schools in Dundee and three textile makers: , and , the project introduces teachers and pupils in p5 and p6 to new craft-based approaches that support numeracy skills development in the classroom.

Find out more about the textile makers involved in the project - including some of what has surprised and delighted them throughout project thus far - in a special interview with Kim, Jolene and Kate, now live on the MAKE website.

“I couldn’t believe how well the kids responded to this project. I could see them counting the rows they would need in one colour and how many in another. Thinking about pattern and symmetry. Craft may not be a conventional way to aid the teaching of numeracy and maths skills, but I could see how much more confident the kids were in talking about numbers and counting when it wasn’t their primary focus.“ Kim Norrie
MAKE with the Knit Shop is a partnership between MAKE, Knit Shop and Dundee Creative Learning Network, led by Craft Scotland and Panel. It is funded by ’s Teacher Development Fund, with additional support from as part of their targeted funding to strengthen the craft sector in Scotland.

Fit to Last by Bernie Reid, 40 Osborne Street, 2012

Fit to Last was an installation of new work by .bernie alongside a selection of professional and amateur films from Scottish Screen Archive documenting sport and fitness in Glasgow during the 1970s.

It explored ideas surrounding the fashion and psychology of fitness and the simultaneous evolution of urban sub-cultural trends. Reid presented these ideas through the creation of a hand-stencilled scenography, upon which a series of three limited edition screen prints, inspired by the selected films, were layered.

A reflective throwback to photographs taken during a research visit to the (now closed) Barrie knitwear factory, Hawick, in 2013.

Panel presented the exhibition Barrie Girls as part of Glasgow’s Merchant City Festival in 2013. Created by graphic designers Sophie Dyer and with artist , Barrie Girls took its inspiration from a set of historical Look Book photographs loaned from the storerooms of Barrie Knitwear, a manufacturer of luxury cashmere based in the Scottish Borders.
