City Streets, Scottish Islands and Silhouetted Hills: Bet Low’s Art and Life
Bet Low Centenary Talk by Hildegarde Berwick, art curator
May 24 @ 2:00 pm
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. During the earlier part of her career, she co-founded a pioneering art gallery in 1963 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.
