"Showing for the first time in Scotland, Tim Rollins and K.O.S. present an exhibition including new work and a series of Art and Knowledge Workshops. Coming to Edinburgh direct from the first Frieze New York, the collective's literary and music inspired work continues to make waves within contemporary art. Surveying their work at Frieze, Simon Schama commented that, "combining instruction in reading and writing with collaborative art-making has resulted in some work of spectacular radiance as well as social energy".
The exhibition title, The Black Spot, is taken from Stevenson's Treasure Island, the classic adventure story that has inspired a new work for Talbot Rice. The Black Spot is a summons to audiences to reinvigorate a belief in the power of art to change lives".
