On Thursday 24th February, we welcome John McAslan to the Hall for a Q&A on our forthcoming exhibition “Burrell’s Renaissance”.
Following a five-year £68.25m renovation project led by John McAslan + Partners on behalf of Glasgow Life and the Burrell Renaissance Project, The Burrell Collection, one of Europe’s finest museums housed in one of the very few Category-A listed post-war Scottish buildings, re-opens to the public in March.
“Burrell’s Renaissance” will present the history of the Burrell Collection and its transformation into one of the world’s most accessible art museums. It will focus on the architectural transformation of the building using drawings, models, film footage and other material and will include the original model from Glasgow Life built by the architects in the 1970s.
Join us and put your questions to John as he talks about the transformation of the original museum and celebrates it’s reopening.
