About this Event
This unique talk coincides with Patricia Paolozzi Cain's exhibition at The Briggait, Opposition and Fellowship, which was awarded to the artist by Wasps Studios and the Royal Scottish Academy for 2024.
Patricia Paolozzi Cain is a multi-award winning artist and scholar based in Edinburgh, with a PhD in the Practice of Drawing from Glasgow School of Art. Her art practice lies at the intersection of cognition and internal contemplative practice, with a current focus on nature as a gateway to the internal mind. Patricia is interested in ideas concerning beauty as a deeper aesthetic, contemplative pedagogy, heart learning and cognitive diversity.
The art of Ronald Forbes forms a narrative around the way we see and understand the world. It is about illusion, belief and reality - and the fuzzy edges between these. He is an artist who is primarily a painter, but who has also made films throughout his career. He was Head of Painting at the Crawford School of Art, Cork (1974–78) and then at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, University of Dundee (1995–2001), where he also established and directed the Masters Course in Public Art and Design and the MFA Course from 1983–1995. He was a lecturer at Glasgow School of Art (1979–2003), and is Honorary Visiting Professor of Fine Art at the University of Abertay, Dundee, (2003–present).
