History
Born in Glasgow in 1935, McCulloch studied at the GSA from 1953-1957 and was awarded a Royal Scottish Academy Travelling Scholarship the year he left Art School. Elected a Member of the Society of Scottish Artists in 1964, he received Scottish Arts Council Awards in 1967 and 1972, and was elected Academician, Royal Scottish Academy, in 2005.
His work can be found in many public collections including Kelvingrove Art Gallery, Glasgow, the City Art Centre, Edinburgh and the Saatchi Collection, London. Although best known as a painter, he has also produced ceramics, sculptures and relief prints.
Winner of the Glasgow International Concert Hall Mural Competition 1989-90, the removal of his painting, “Strathclyde” at the request of the Glasgow Lord Provost caused some controversy at the time.
