We are sad to hear the news of John Byrne’s passing. A truly inspirational artist and Scottish cultural figure. We're personally indebted to him for his support of the Citz on and off stage. Our condolences to his family, friends and everyone privileged to have worked with him.

We are very sad to learn about John Byrne's passing. We worked with him five years ago on the pop-up set he made for John McGrath's play The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil. He was a joy to work with.

So very sad to hear of the death of the brilliant John Byrne. Supremely gifted as an artist and playwright, generous, funny and the most stylish man I’ve ever met. ❤️

So terribly sad to hear of the death of John Byrne, supremely talented playwright and artist, one of Scotland’s most important cultural voices of modern times, and the loveliest of men. I was thrilled in 2017 when he agreed to do the illustration for my First Minister Xmas card. My condolences to his loved ones.

Very sorry to hear that the great John Byrne has passed away at the age of 83. At the Kelvingrove exibition last September it was just mind-boggling to contemplate so much talent crammed into a single man.

We are extremely sad to learn that John Byrne has passed away. Truly one of a kind, he was one of Scotland’s most masterful, maverick artists. Inventive, innovative and intriguing, John’s distinctive art stops you in your tracks and immediately draws you in.

A reminder that the mighty John Byrne, as well as being a great artist and writer, directed one of the best Scottish films, the Wellesian Boswell and Johnson's Tour of the Western Isles
John was wildly creative, ludic and kind.

A big light has just gone out.
John Byrne: artist, writer, wit, auto-didact, Paisley buddy, slab boy, roller of fine roll-ups, music-lover, sharer of hairy dug stories, driest of wits, big wheezy laugher, kindest and sweetest of men, and always the best dressed guy in the room.

The great Scottish artist and writer John Byrne has died. He had an extraordinary gift for drawing, one of the best I've ever seen. This portrait of Tilda Swinton was done in about half an hour. 1/2
