Art reviews: Hiwa K at Hospitalfield, Arbroath | Richard Wright at Modern Institute, Glasgow

0
One of the most talked about works at the Venice Biennale in 2015, Nazhad and the Bell by the Iraqi artist Hiwa K gets its first UK showing here, ­having been spotted by the team from Hospitalfield who curated Graham Fagen’s ­Biennale show for the same year. Two films run side by side: in Nazhad’s scrap yard in Northern Iraq, old armaments are melted down to make metal ingots; in Northern Italy, these same ingots are used to make a beautiful, decorated bell. Even shown without the bell itself – which is considered too fragile to transport – the work is full of resonances.
