 Art Historian Ola Wojtkiewicz will share her insights into co-curating the exhibition  'Looking Good, Male Gaze from Van Dyck to Lucian Freud' currently showing at the Scottish National Portrait  Gallery until 1st October.  This exhibition is part of the national tour of Sir Anthony Van Dyck's final self portrait recently acquired for the nation and the SNPG is the only Scottish gallery to ;host this high profile painting..  

The event will also feature a talk by Dr Patricia Allerston, Deputy Director of the SNG and Project Director of the proposed Scottish National Project and as it has been announced recently that plans for this re-organisation have been amended, the evening will provide an ideal opportunity to hear of the changes from the very person in charge.

There is  space available and members of LADFAS are invited
