The Glasgow School of Art MFA degree show started tonight at the Tramway and runs for a week.

Some nice stuff. I liked a set of oil paintings including this one:

Not a lot! Very Happy

It was part of a set where the colours work well and the artist has done something with the paint that doesn;t show up in a 2D pic. But all graduate shows require a "benevolent eye".

There was a couple of giant nude prints including two guys playing with each other's cocks, suffice to say this made me think of Crown and Immo.

Thought I'd spare us all the joy of viewing anything from that "corner" of the gallery...
