Curated by students from the University of Glasgow's Exhibition Development course, our latest focus exhibition showcases pieces of figurative art by unknown artists from around the world and from various parts of our Hunterian collections.
Since the name of the artist or maker hasn’t been recorded, the students have turned to the places the objects were created and the communities they belonged to, in an attempt to fill these gaps.
In this Friday Focus talk, hear from the student curators on the making of the exhibition and find out more about the artworks and objects on display.
'Artist: Unknown' is on display until Thursday 22 September at the Hunterian Art Gallery.
The Friday Focus talk programme features a different speaker each week, sharing a deeper insight into our exhibitions and collections, and work going on behind the scenes at The Hunterian. We hold the talks every Friday at 1pm online over Zoom. Talks are approximately 20 minutes long with time for questions afterwards.
