For this, the second edition of The Exquisite Corpse Painting Project, based on the surrealist parlour drawing game of consequences; eighteen artists, separated stylistically, geographically and philosophically have worked in secret to produce a set of six corpses for your enjoyment and contemplation.

We're three Glasgow-based artists, in our final year as Fine Art undergraduates at GSA. Our work explores the interaction of people to spaces, and forms of non-verbal communication within a lens-based framework. Collectively we draw our inspiration from the city we live in, and the social nature of urban space in a broader context:

In advance of local elections in May 2017, New Glasgow Society is hosting a hustings event focused on the built environment in Glasgow. Representatives of main parties will be attending and fielding questions from you, the general public, about their plans for the city – its architecture, places and spaces.

What are the various parties’ plans for the city? What are the key infrastructure challenges facing Glasgow? Where do you think its priorities should lie?

Join the debate! Come along, have your say, and put your questions to Glasgow’s politicians. The event will run to a ‘question time’ format.

Chair: Karen Anderson,
Chair of Architecture and Design Scotland

Panel:

Scottish Green Party - Christy Mearns
