Iain Clark: A Love Letter to Glasgow Exhibition

Join us for this solo exhibition of the photographic artist Iain Clark at the University of Glasgow’s Advanced Research Centre. Come along to this show to see the faces of some well-known and perhaps lesser-known Glaswegians. Breathing life into Glasgow’s very essence, this homage, rendered in monochromatic and coloured strokes, exposes the spirited pulse that thrives within the city’s veins. Street photography, the lifeblood of the exhibition, illuminates the ordinary and the extraordinary alike. The anonymous faces of passersby intertwine with the familiar visages of local legends, each expressing the collective spirit that reverberates within the city. Iain says: “My intimate affection for Glasgow is demonstrated by unveiling a deep sense of community amongst its vivid characters – my tribute to a city that embraces and inspires all who are fortunate enough to call it home.” The exhibition can be viewed in the ARC’s exhibition space from 9 – 22 September. Monday – Friday, 08:30 – 19:30 Saturdays and Sundays,10:00 – 16:00. The exhibition is dedicated to the memory of John Shaw, alumni of Glasgow University, a proud Glaswegian and patron of the arts.
