A GRAFFITI artist from Glasgow has been announced as the first guest at a new series of events by Ubiquitous Chip.
The first ‘CONVERSATIONS AT THE CHIP’ will take place on September 21 at the much-loved Ashton Lane institution and will give the public a rare opportunity to hear direct from the famous street artist Bobby McNamara aka ROGUE ONE.
He is known for his work across Scotland including The World's Most Economical Taxi in Mitchell Lane and Crazy Cat Lady on Sauchiehall Street, as well as the beautiful montage wrapping The Clutha of figures such as Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Billy Connolly, John Byrne, Paolo Nutini and Sharleen Spiteri.
‘ROGUE ONE In Conversation’ will be set within The Brasserie at Ubiquitous Chip, as he reflects on his 30-year career at the forefront of the country’s street art movement.
Guests will be taken on a visual journey spanning his early graffiti works, productions with friends, and his most memorable commissions across Scotland for clients including VisitScotland, Glasgow City Council, housing associations and residential landlords, educational establishments, and numerous private customers.
