The entire FULLY AWAKE exhibition cycle is in five parts (in five different venues) and will eventually involve 180 artists over a two-year period.

This second exhibition at House For An Art Lover, Glasgow will include 36 works. The following 12 artists have been invited to exhibit work and also to invite an additional two ‘guest’ artists to exhibit work alongside them. The 12 exhibitors teach painting at HE institutions and their guests comprise one artist who was influential to them when they were studying painting and also one student that they have taught painting to.  As such the project evidences the ongoing inter-connection teachers and students of Art enjoy.
