Peacock Visual Arts: ALICIA BRUCE “Menie: a portrait of a North-East coastal community in conflict”Opening night Friday 14 January 6 - 8pm
exhibition runs 15 January - 26 February
Award winning photographer Alicia Bruce spent the summer of 2010 collaborating with residents of the Menie estate, an area of outstanding natural beauty and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) situated 20 minutes north of Aberdeen.
The residents' homes are under threat of compulsory purchase as Trump International starts construction of a golf course, hotel and housing development with plans to re-name Menie 'The Great Dunes of Scotland'.
The exhibition showcases a stunning array of photographic and moving image works that present a humane story about people and place - an observance of conflicted territory and those who inhabit it.

its disgusting what trump is doing - basically flattening an entire area with such amazing natural beauty into a ridiculous man made golf course. Compulsory Purchase? sounds like the authorities have allowed it to go forward, more like.
