VAU proudly presents… “Pillow Talk”, a new series of discussion events hosted by artists invited by VAU to engage with the public on a variety of contemporary art issues.

The first in the series was held in the Main Gallery at Southblock in Glasgow, with the discussion focussing on the emerging years of artists: their backgrounds, how they started out and the challenges they face in establishing their practice.

VAU were delighted to have The Brownlee Brothers, Peter Chalmers, Toby Paterson and David Shrigley on the panel for this event, who each discussed and shared their own experiences when starting out.
