Gallacher & Warren

Gallacher & Warren is the creative collaboration of Glasgow based artists Katherine Gallacher and Ric Warren. With a shared interest in urban theory and town planning, we were brought together by the curatorial team PLACE Projects when asked to research and make artwork collaboratively for the 2009 New Work Scotland Programme (NWSP) at Collective Gallery, Edinburgh. For this project, entitled FUTUREPROOF, we began to explore current trends in the revitalisation of urban landscapes, heavily focusing our research on the redeveloped areas of Glasgow’s river Clyde. Acknowledging the benefits of collaborative practice, this professional relationship has continued to develop as we persist to further explore our collective interests.

This blog acts as a space to collect research material and document the development of the project.
