Ostriches Are In The ARC

University of Glasgow, Advanced Research Centre, 11 Chapel Lane, G11 6EW

Speaker: Prof. Christina Young

Ostriches and flowers are in Professor Christina Young’s History of Art lab at the ARC – in paintings and botanical drawings on loan from Argyll & Bute and Kew Gardens. Professor Young will be streaming from her lab, using a combination of optical techniques to research the pigments and artist techniques which have produced the vivid ostriches and subtle colours of the botanical drawings.

Two time slots 10:30am-11:30am and 2:30pm-3:30pm. No booking required!

This event is part of Glasgow Science Festival 2025 which runs from 5 – 15 June
