Exhibition '20th Century: Masterpieces of Scottish and European Art' in Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art
This exhibition of works from the collection, offers an historical overview of some of the most significant art works made during the last century. It features some of the most important works in our collection from the 20th Century.
Opened in 1960, the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art was the first gallery in Britain dedicated to collecting modern and contemporary art. Fifty-five years on, many important and world famous works of art have entered the collection including works by Picasso and Matisse, paintings by the Russian artists Mikhail Larionov and Natalya Goncharova, and sculptures by the British artist Henry Moore, all of which are on display.
This exhibition supports the Gallery’s mission to place modern Scottish art in an international context by showcasing the work of modern Scottish artists alongside their European contemporaries.
