Artist Ellie Harrison sparked a fast-and-furious debate about class, capitalism, art, education and much more, when news of her year-long project The Glasgow Effect went viral at the start of 2016. Named after the term used to describe Glasgow's mysteriously poor public health and funded to the tune of £15,000 by Creative Scotland, this controversial 'durational performance' centred on a simple proposition – that the artist would refuse to travel beyond Glasgow's city limits, or use any vehicles except her bike, for a whole calendar year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\" data-sleek-node-id=\"ZpEZMB\"\u003eSo well done Ellie Harrison, take a bow you have produced a bold, vital and thoroughly researched piece of work and this should be stocked in every library, book shop and place of learning throughout the length and breadth of Scotland. \u003cstrong data-sleek-node-id=\"aCcrVJ\"\u003eKeen on Goodreads, 2022\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-pm-slice=\"0 0 []\" data-sleek-node-id=\"9EMI63\"\u003e\u003cem data-sleek-node-id=\"vLfALw\"\u003eGlasgow Effect artist Ellie Harrison launches book in response to 'social media ****storm.\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong data-sleek-node-id=\"qWBZfy\"\u003e\u003cem data-sleek-node-id=\"yPavTz\"\u003eThe Scotsman\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-pm-slice=\"0 0 []\" data-sleek-node-id=\"8Sx9ig\"\u003eEllie Harrison’s project – her ‘extreme lifestyle experiment’ – is an anticipation of what’s to come. We will all have to relax our standards on what we regard as a legitimate or respectable ‘job’, as the new pieces of our socio-economic future settle... Harrison’s mix of occupational skills, community activism, education and self-expression – and her enthusiastic interest in how all these elements fit together – is going to be more and more the mainstream experience of ‘work’ in our societies. We should learn from her, and from the new wave of socially-engaged artists like her. \u003cstrong data-sleek-node-id=\"7sZI4x\"\u003ePAT KANE, The National, January 2016\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-sleek-node-id=\"ZYQtkN\"\u003eBrava to Ellie Harrison for continued integrity and conviction, as she uses her education, skills and (self-acknowledged) privileged position as an artist to challenge the failing economic status quo and ruffle the feathers of our corrupt, complacent establishment in Glasgow and beyond. \u003cstrong data-sleek-node-id=\"jtobk6\"\u003eZARA KITSON, Head of Community Engagement for Princes Trust Scotland, Facebook, January 2017\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-sleek-node-id=\"6ypik0\"\u003eThis is a most excellent book for anyone who is interested in public transport, local democracy, and seriously addressing the climate emergency and socio-economic inequality in the world. \u003cstrong data-sleek-node-id=\"BsLDYZ\"\u003e5* Goodreads Reviewer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-sleek-node-id=\"N2PfjD\"\u003e\u003cem data-sleek-node-id=\"WGFzPf\"\u003eEllie Harrison: Glasgow artist on a poverty safari?
