'Changing seasons'
The Ruthven Gallery, 136a High Street, Auchterarder (Map)
This exhibition of works by McIntosh and artists Louise Balaam, Rosemary Bassett, Fanny Lam Christie and Yvonne MacDougal aims to highlight concerns about climate change. The show, which opens on World Environment Day on the 5th June, highlights that it is possible for us all to make small changes: in McIntosh’s case, by re-using and re-vitalising the discarded, unwanted and unusual. The work by the five featured artists range from sculpture and wall mounted pieces that use reclaimed materials to paintings that capture the changing seasons. Together they present a powerful message regarding climate change through art.

Supported by Stop Climate Chaos Scotland, the exhibition runs until 16th July.

'Readymade'
The Dundas Street Gallery, 6a Dundas Street, Edinburgh (Map)
McIntosh’s third exhibition in Edinburgh revealed further exploration of the "readymade" theme which presented a diverse range of subject matter: landscapes, abstract and representational. This collection of mounted assemblage art was created from the undisguised but often modified materials found in industrial settings, such as copper coils and tarnished metals.

'Compressed'
Café Camino, St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh (Map)
At his second Edinburgh exhibition in 25th May 2007, McIntosh showcased paint-splashed coils, brightly polished copper and imaginatively sculpted found materials that wowed visitors. Among the pieces on display was a exploratory piece called "Curly Wurly" which utilizes industrially compressed copper pipes, and a mounted bail of crushed aluminium cans, scratched until it sparkles. Textured and painted lead and zinc pieces also fired up the visitor's imaginations. The copper assemblage "So long, and thanks for all the hot water" was a popular talking point.

'Torn & Tangled'
Café Camino, St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh (Map)
McIntosh’s inaugural solo exhibition, in aid of The Scottish Society for Autism, was a huge success in raising awareness for the artist and this important cause. As the title of this exhibition might suggest, every conceivable material of old was incorporated into a work of art, from interesting, bent and battered metal objects to beautiful copper coils. Splashed with colourful health and safety signs, the nod to the original use of the unwanted items on display, revealed McIntosh’s sense of story-telling.
