Vaduz: Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, 2009
21 x 10cm, 6pp. Announcement leaflet for the major retrospective with 3 works reproduced in colour.
A personal note - this exhibition took place at the same time as Falkirk Football Club played its only competitive European football match against Vaduz FC. Paul Robertson a life long supporter of Falkirk arrived at the match only to find the exhibition open opposite the bar in which he was having lunch. There were over a thousand football supporters in the town before the game - but when he visited the exhibition the woman on the desk told him he was the ONLY visitor to the exhibition that day. She also turned out to be the girlfriend of the Vadus striker who scored two goals and knocked Falkirk out of the competition later that day. One the positive side she gave Robertson all of the various publicity materials for the show for free including come large posters. VG+.
