The Glasgow School of Art

Opening Forum

Speakers  Tom Inns, Brian Evans, Toby Paterson and Chris Platt

As a way of introducing the series of the lectures we are proposing to start with a forum. We are inviting a diverse group of guests from a variety of disciplines and look to explore the topic through a number of viewpoints. The event will start with a series of short presentations from each of the guests, approximately 10 minutes in length, in order to introduce their thoughts on the subject. We will then open the lecture up into a discussion, with questions centred on our theme of ‘Recover, Rebuild and Renew’. This will explore the past, present and proposed development of Glasgow and the future role of the Art School within the city.
