SUMMARY:Recreating Margaret Macdonald's Gesso Panels with Dai Vaughan
DESCRIPTION:The Mackintosh Tearooms\, 215-217 Sauchiehall Street  \n\n\n\nHave you ever wondered about recreating one of Margaret Macdonald’s iconic gesso panels? \n\n\n\nIn this talk\, Dai Vaughan will discuss the research and recreation process undertaken by himself and his late wife Jenny\, to reveal the unique gesso method that Margaret Macdonald developed. Dai will present studies of the symbolic meanings integral to Margaret Macdonald’s work\, new discoveries about the inspirations behind the gesso panel she designed for our Salon de Luxe\, and key differences between the recreated Salon de Luxe work and the original now on display at Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum. \n\n\n\nDai and Jenny Vaughan moved to Glasgow in the late 1980s after winning a competition to design murals for Princes Square. Subsequently they designed festive lighting for George Square to celebrate Glasgow becoming European City of Culture. They are best known for their interest\, involvement\, and recreation of the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Margaret Macdonald. They were commissioned to produce high quality recreations for both House for an Art Lover and The Mackintosh Tearooms. \n\n\n\nPart of The Dug Out: Sunday Afternoon Talks for the Public in 2026.
