The Hunterian’s major new exhibition, Mackintosh Architecture, is now open and admission is free to University of Glasgow staff and students with a valid staff/matriculation card.
Mackintosh is celebrated internationally as one of the most creative and individual artists and designers of the early 20th century but his core activity as an architect has been remarkably under-researched.
Mackintosh Architecture is the first major exhibition to be devoted to Mackintosh’s architectural work and features over 80 architectural drawings from The Hunterian and collections across the UK. Many have never been exhibited before and are on display alongside specially commissioned film, models and archival material.
Challenging the familiar view of Mackintosh as the sole genius, the exhibition presents the wider context of the practice of Honeyman, Keppie and Mackintosh and their contractors, suppliers and clients.
Mackintosh Architecture 18 July 2014 – 4 January 2015 Hunterian Art Gallery Admission £5/£3 (free to University of Glasgow staff and students with a valid staff/matriculation card) Open Tuesday - Saturday 10.00am - 5.00pm and Sunday 11.00am - 4.00pm
