Spectators to Aberdeen Asset Management were treated to an exclusive display of fine art yesterday during the inaugural Fine Art Sails demonstration off The Green.
This display of original artwork painted onto the sails of former Olympic class Stars, provided a colourful addition to an already sparkling regatta.
This first-of-its-kind alliance between the communities of sailing and fine art was conceived and founded by Michael Ross, who has created a ‘living gallery’ of contemporary art from some of the most respected artists including Goldie, David Begbie, Julian Opie, INSA, and Ben Eine.
