Detours: Aidan Moffat at Inverleith House

7pm

Free, booking essential

Doors will close at 7pm exactly. No latecomers admitted. Please arrive at at the John Hope Gateway of the Edinburgh Royal Botanic Gardens at 6.50pm

 

Formerly one half of Arab Strap and now an iconic singer-songwriter and storyteller in his own right, Aidan Moffat here riffs on the themes of junk and the city. Inspired by Rauschenberg’s collages, his performance splices together a series of headlines from the local press to create a melodic short story.

This Detour is a response to Robert Rauschenberg at Inverleith House.
