About this event

  • 1 hour

In this centenary year of the birth of Glasgow based artist Bet Low, Hildegarde describes in the Art Club Gallery the art and life of this important figurative and landscape painter.

The artist is best known for her tranquil views of Orkney and other west coast locations in Scotland. In 1963 she co-founded a pioneering art gallery in Sauchiehall Street to show the work of young, ambitious artists.

Her views of Glasgow dating to the late 1940s and 1950s, have since become important documents of now lost areas of the city. In 1999, Bet was awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Letters from Glasgow University.


Coffee & Tea included in ticket price.
