Fit to Last

Back to Projects.

27 - 29 JULY 2012

Exhibition at 40 Osborne Street, Glasgow

Presented as part of the Merchant City Festival 2012, Fit to Last is an installation of new work by Bernie Reid alongside a selection of professional and amateur films from Scottish Screen Archive documenting sport and fitness in the city in the 1960s and 70s.

Fit to Last looks at ideas surrounding the fashion and psychology of fitness in the city, and the evolution of sub-cultural trends -then and now- as Scotland prepares for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014.
