Campbell started his career with Phillips on Bath Street, going on to become Managing Director, before becoming one of the founding directors of the relaunched Lyon & Turnbull in 1999. A ‘well kent’ face in Glasgow and the Scottish art world, Campbell places strong emphasis on good client contact. He is also a valuer with wide knowledge built up over twenty years’ experience.
Gavin began with Christie’s on Bath Street as a specialist in the furniture and works of art department, also running the carpet department and later becoming their general valuer for the West Coast. He joined Lyon & Turnbull in 2002 and, like Campbell, has an excellent all-round knowledge of art and antiques.

C&W
John Cunningham R.G.I. (1926-1998) I can see him now, painting in the open air in Ardnamurchan or on Colonsay, canvas, easel and pigments on the palette, all in correspondence, in his movements of arm, hand, body, eyes keen to the whole vision before him, the brush-strokes bold and confident, but subtle and attentive to the intricate patterns of water and mountain and sky. I remember when I was a wee boy, Uncle John took me out into the fields of his native Lanarkshire with two easels, canvases, paints and brushes, set me up beside him and told me to look closely at the clouds in the sky above, their form and movement, colours and tones, shifting shapes I was never quick enough to catch, but watched him do it so deft, so accurate. ‘Paint what you see!’ he commanded, like the army man he had been, but it was his generosity and friendliness that really made things possible.
It was my first lesson in close observation and I took it as far as I could in writing, in my own books of poems, First and Last Songs and Clearances, whose covers are graced by paintings he gave me his happy permission to place there. When I edited Hugh MacDiarmid’s Selected Poems for a Penguin Modern Classics edition, John supplied the cover picture, Raised Beaches, to match the greatest of all modern Scottish poems, ‘On a Raised Beach’ and something of the spirit of Scotland breathes in John Cunningham’s work as deeply and surely as it does in MacDiarmid, something unimaginable in any other country. This is Scottish art at its quintessential best. In the arrangements of fruit in bowls and wine in decanters, sheet music on a music stand, crockery on a linen-covered table, pheasants or fish on their plates, or flowers in a vase or a Glasgow jug, there are moments in John’s paintings that command you just as surely, to pause and gratefully enjoy that moment of decorum, before the eating and drinking commences. Patience is part of his art. I recollect long hours of work with him in the studio at Charing Cross, stretching and nailing the canvases to frames, preparations for his painting trips to the north-west. Once, he showed me an old photograph of his father’s father, a cobbler, sitting with his helper, shoes turned on a lathe as they worked, in perhaps the 1890s. He said this part of his work was as essential as making certain that the shoes were firmly soled and watertight. This is not simply the mechanics of construction but essential to his vision. It gives what you see in the paintings lasting value, beyond fashion. They give pleasure to the eye and thinking mind. They are works that remind you why life is worth living, why it’s good to be companionable, and share things, views of Scotland and other places, of tables and spaces to be occupied by sensitised people who care about such things. All his paintings show the determined self-discipline of the artist whose commitment is total but, and in equal measure, the exuberance of pleasure in life’s abundance, in the landscapes and seascapes of the west of Scotland, in the grace and precision, the measurements of sensual apprehension, in the still lifes. The intellectual explorations

of the great philosophers of the Scottish Enlightenment, the architects and social thinkers, like Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Patrick Geddes, the famous engineers, all give Scottish achievement a reputation for practicality and straight dealing with fundamental issues, but these always require the complementarity of sensual thinking. The apprehension of reality through paintings is one of Scotland’s greatest achievements, from William McTaggart through to the Scottish Colourists in whose tradition Cunningham’s work securely resides, and in the largest human sense of comprehending what life might be if we have the courage to see it in all its richness and variety, here in Scotland.
Georges Braque once wrote: ‘Objects do not exist for me except in so far as a harmonious relationship exists between them and between them and myself. When one attains this harmony one reaches a sort of intellectual nonexistence which makes everything possible and right.’ John Cunningham’s work can be looked at and studied in the intellectual history of modern Scottish painting, but again and again, in painting after painting, it delivers this sense that the world is still capable of being so full of possibility and rightness.

George Wyllie M.B.E., A.R.S.A., R.G.I. (1921-2012) In the beginning, I thought I knew George’s work, but it turns out I knew nothing. Before getting involved with helping to cement the Wyllie legacy as an artist of international importance (as one of the organisers of the award-winning Whysman Festival), I knew George had created the Straw Locomotive, a life sized straw engine which hung from the Finnieston Crane in Glasgow for six weeks during the summer of 1987. I also knew about a huge Paper Boat which he launched into the River Clyde with no little fanfare from beneath the same crane two years later. Both these events received an enormous amount of press and publicity. George, a retired Customs and Excise officer, turned full time artist, had a knack for masterminding big events. He was articulate and he was a showman. After it was taken down from the crane, George’s Straw Loco was paraded through the streets of Glasgow on the back of a lorry (with its boiler-suited maker inside). It was then ceremonially burned at the site of a former engineering works in Springburn. A lone piper played a lament and grown men, who had worked on that very site making engines which were sent all over the world, cried. Our Makar (or national poet) Liz Lochhead has spoken about how important the Straw
Locomotive was to her as a writer and artist. Actor Alan Cumming, living in Glasgow at the time, describes it as ‘an act of whimsy, bravado and passion that connected on an emotional level with the Scottish people – it changed my view of what art could be’. Two years later, George, then 68 and a decade into a full-time career as an artist, turned up for the launch of The Paper Boat in a white boiler suit and wearing a sailing captain’s hat on his head. He conducted a choir that sang a jaunty ditty he’d penned called The Paper Boat Song; an industrial chaplain from the nearby shipyards blessed the boat and then renowned Scots author and social commentator, Naomi Mitchison, launched it on a journey which took it all around the world. It even sailed down the Hudson and into the World Financial Center in New York. For the US leg of its journey, George had added texts from Adam Smith’s The Theory of Moral Sentiments inside the boat. George – and his Paper Boat – ended up making a splash on the front cover of the Wall Street Journal. George Wyllie’s definition of public art was ‘art the public can’t avoid’ - and there was no avoiding George’s scul?tures. He started calling himself a scul?tor, and his work scul?ture, in 1976, because he said the question mark should be central to all things. His constantly questioning approach to making art had a major influence on a generation of young artists. Leading contemporary Scottish artists, such as Douglas Gordon and Roderick Buchanan, have spoken about the impact George’s work made on their own approach to making art. George felt that art should be taken out of art galleries and into the wider public realm. He believed artists should think BIG and that they had an important socio-political role to play in society. George Wyllie was born in Shettleston on Hogmanay, 1921. Art and music played a part in his life from a young age thanks to his creative mother, Harriet, who taught her elder son and his younger brother, Banks, to draw and paint, to play musical instruments and to dance. In the late 1930s, the two brothers appeared on the X-Factor of its day, a wireless programme on the BBC called Carroll Levis and His Discoveries, which had an audience of millions. George, who played in bands all his life, would have loved to make a career in music, but he started his working life as an engineer for the Post Office in Govan. This safe and ‘dull’ job ended when the war took him to sea as an engineer with the Royal Navy in 1942. He met his wife Daphne at a dance in Gosport during a spell of leave. While serving in the Pacific, he paid a visit to the ruined city of Hiroshima with some shipmates after the atomic bomb dropped, and it sparked a lifelong

concern for environmental issues. After the war, George became a customs and excise officer in Greenock. A promotion saw him moved to Northern Ireland, where he worked on the land boundary patrol across the border. Although music was a constant throughout his life, he only ‘made time for art’ from the mid-1960s. By then he was settled in Gourock with Daphne and two daughters; Louise and Elaine. He initially took lessons in oil painting, but it was only when he attended welding classes at a local college that his imagination was fired by the possibilities. The rest is the stuff of contemporary art history. With the energy of a man half his age, George began to create magical works of art in the basement cellar of his bungalow high above the Firth of Clyde. He started with a Ten Object Plan and this included a selection of what he later called his ‘crusty objects’; a dancing lamppost, a mortgage climbing up a wall, a bishop which gave the viewer a blessing when rocked back and forth. A crucifix was accepted by the Royal Scottish Academy and sold to a church in Barrow-on-Furness, attracting the interest and friendship of the Queen’s sculptor, Benno Schotz. During this period, he continued to work at the Customs Office in Greenock, spending every spare moment drawing, planning and welding. In 1976, three years before becoming a full-time artist, he mounted his first solo show, Scul?ture, at the Collins Exhibition Hall, (which became Strathclyde University’s Collins Gallery). Wyllie was on his way as an artist. His work, much of it made from scrap metal materials, found its way into churches, pubs, clubs, restaurants and other public spaces. By the early 1970s, through Edinburgh-based artist and promoter Richard Demarco, his horizons began to expand and he came into contact with the wider art world, which in turn led him to the front door of American kinetic sculptor, George Rickey, who had grown up in Helensburgh. He also met German conceptual artist Joseph Beuys and during the 1980s spent time with him at his home in Germany. During the 1980s, through an ongoing association with the Third Eye Centre in Glasgow, an exhibition called A Day Down a Goldmine, morphed into a play, starring George and a variety of well-known actors, including Russell Hunter and Bill Paterson. This award-winning play, with words, music and props all by George, played throughout the 1980s in venues around the UK. From the early 1990s until 2008, George continued to work like a man possessed; making, writing and creating. His output was prolific. His last major exhibition in 2006 was called The Cosmic Journey and drew together material spanning some 40
years to illustrate his constant search for balance – or equilibrium, as he called it. His wife Daphne died in 2004 and by 2010 he was living in a home for retired mariners in Greenock. In early 2011, his elder daughter, Louise Wyllie, asked me to chair a group she’d set up called The Friends of George Wyllie. The idea was that we would celebrate his work and make him feel that he had made a difference. George died in May 2012, just a week after we secured Creative Scotland funding to make sure his legacy was celebrated and shared with a new generation. The first time I met George Wyllie properly, in 2011, he demanded to know: ‘What’s your passion? The best thing you’ve ever done?’ The thing about George, I have come to learn, is that he asked direct questions: of you as a person, your heritage, your creativity, and your whole philosophy on the world in which you find yourself living. George Wyllie made things happen. He did it with passion and with humour. When you use humour as a weapon, po-faced people occasionally mistake it for a light touch. What lies beneath is the key.

Note: The Straw Locomotive, George Wyllie’s powerful full scale rendition of a classic steam train, which hung from Glasgow’s Stobcross crane during the summer of 1987, is widely credited as one of the defining moments in Scottish art in the late 20th century. It secured Wyllie’s reputation as an artist of international standing. The seeming insubstantiality of the piece was widely understood and appreciated as a commentary on the loss of the West of Scotland’s traditional heavy industries. Wyllie’s subsequent Viking funeral for the piece was typical of his bravura theatricality but did nothing to diminish the standing of the work in public memory. While the original Straw Locomotive survives only in images and memory, this second smaller version, a metre-long replica of the original, was commissioned on behalf of the City of Glasgow to form part of The Big Model, the highly imaginative centrepiece of Glasgow’s 1994 bid for the title UK City of Architecture and Design 1999. George Wyllie, hauling the Straw Locomotive Mark 2 onto the model crane (guided by Professor Andy MacMillan), gave the Glasgow bid substantial television coverage at the time.

We accept cash, bank transfer (details on request), Switch or Debit Cards and Visa or MasterCard (please note there is a surcharge of 2% (VAT included) when using credit cards). We do not accept American Express. (2) any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing from you to us on any account whatever without regard to any directions of you or your agent, whether express or implied. 7.

(3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for. (4) It is the buyer’s responsibility to ascertain collection procedures, particularly if the sale is not being held at our main saleroom and the potential storage charges for lots not collected by the appropriate time. 8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on their behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs).

(2) We shall, as agent for the seller and on their behalf pursue these rights and remedies only as far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these Conditions
9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale. 10. COMMISSION BIDS While prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer or our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 11.

held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents or the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. (2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 16. FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.
13. TERMS OF SALE

Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably
18 (1) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate.

Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. 20. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, paintings, guns, firearms etc) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary or guidance notes appearing in the catalogue. These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales. 21. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect. 22. Scottish law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.
