As with the heterogeneous character of the Biennale, the work of Charles Avery, Henry Coombes, Louise Hopkins, Rosalind Nashashibi, Lucy Skaer and Tony Swain is diverse, exciting and unpredictable.' </p> <p>He continued: 'Each artist, however, seems to us to share as part of their concern an interest in cultural similarities and differences, and the issues such differences present. Some on occasion use invented worlds to investigate their concerns; others make use of comparisons, real situations or look back into history. What is clear is that each artist works with such ability and often with such surprising and new means that they have the power to alter perceptions.' </p> <p> Philip Long, Curator, Scotland and Venice 2007 </p> <p> Tues 16 Jan 2007 </p> </td> <td width="16"></td> <td valign="top" width="198"><img src="i/d/s-1x1.gif" height="16"><br /><img src="i/d/e/d-1x1.gif" width="198" height="3"><br> <img src="i/d/s-1x1.gif" width="1" height="5"><br /> <table border="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td align="center" ><font size =1> <p align="center"> Artists selected to represent Scotland at the 52nd Venice Biennale of Art<br><br></p></font></td> <tr> <td align="center" > <img src="/i/c/artists-group-01.jpg"alt="artists selected to represent Scotland at the 52nd Venice Biennale of Art" border="0"></a></td> </tr> </table><p align="center"> <font size =1> From left - right, Henry Coombes, Tony Swain, Louise Hopkins, Lucy Skaer and Charles Avery</font> </p> </td> </tr> </table> <div id="menucover" class="menucover" onMouseOut="hideall();"></div> <div class="menu" id="menu"> <img src="i/d/e/d-1x1.gif" width="2" height="10"><a href="exhibition-2007"><img src="i/d/e/menu01.gif" name="menu01" onMouseOver="isw('menu01','menu01_o');
