Bertram Aitchison is a graduate in Art History from Birbeck College in the University of London. He has since worked as Senior Lecturer and Academic Advisor to the American Institute for Foreign Study in London, specialising in Western European Art History.
Following his move to Moffat, he has held the position of Secretary to the Dumfries and Galloway Fine Art Society, and resident speaker for the South West of Scotland Art History Society for the last ten years. He is currently one of the visiting speakers on Art History at Higham Hall in Cumbria.
This programme offers an excursion into the history and development of some major art galleries in Britain; changing tastes and judgements are explored whilst significant paintings are analysed and discussed. Some recent exhibitions are also reviewed.
The programme embraces a dimension of art history which has its core in Spain but branches out to depict the influence of Spanish artists in the European territories which Spain once governed. It further develops into a body of work by expatriates and visitors to the country. THIS BREAK WILL BE RUN TWICE - once in early January and again in late January.
From Friday the 7th of January,
until the morning of
Tuesday the 11th of January
