Lys Hansen (1936 – )
View all Artists- Biography: Lys Hansen has had an association with the University of Stirling and its Art Collection since 1968 but she came to prominence as a dynamic and challenging expressionist figurative painter in the early 1980s before the emergence of the New Glasgow Boys: Howson, Campbell, Currie and Wisniewski.
In 1985 a major scholarship from the Scottish Arts Council afforded her the time and opportunity to work in Berlin, which had a profound effect.
The University held a major exhibition of Lys’s work in 2009 entitled ‘Relatively Closer’.
