: Katie Bruce, Producer Curator (GoMA) and James Rigler (artist) with his work Old Money 2020. Presented to GoMA, Glasgow, by the Contemporary Art Society through the Jackson Tang Ceramics Award, 2020/21. IT is an artistic acquisition which has drawn on the history of its surroundings at Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art. James Rigler s Old Money’ commission refers both to the history of the building and the entrenched privilege it represents with the aim of serving as a reminder that the meaning and value of coins is - like architectural styles - socially constructed, and can evaporate with changing times. And now GoMA has been awarded the prestigious Jackson Tang Ceramic Award 2020/21 by the Contemporary Art Society which supports a major acquisition of ceramic work, for the commission which has now been installed in the exhibition ‘Domestic Bliss’ in Gallery 4.

Combining influences from the Arts and Crafts movement, Celtic Revival, and Japonism, Glasgow artists created their own modern design aesthetic, synonymous with sleek lines and emphatic geometries expressed in a wide range of materials.
