Grayson Perry: Julie Cope’s Grand Tour at Dovecot Studios, Edinburgh

Perry's Julie Cope’s Grand Tour will go on view at Dovecot Studios (25 July–2 November 2019) as part of Edinburgh Art Festival.

 

The exhibition, which is the final stop of Julie Cope’s Grand Tour, includes the complete series of tapestries and a selection of artefacts from A House for Essex, an installation designed by Perry with FAT Architecture to evoke a wayside pilgrimage chapel, which – instead of a patron saint – is dedicated to the life of Julie Cope, a typical Essex woman.
