Byrne’s case made

So a painting crudely daubed with the words, “John Byrne, shut your mouth”, is one student’s erudite response to the artist’s comments that Glasgow School of Art is “a fun factory” which largely produces “garbage”, and the school thinks this worthy of inclusion in its degree show (your report, 15 June).

I’m sure Mr Byrne’s response would be: “I rest my case.”
