This is what happens when Scottish history meets art - a brand new exhibit in a brand new space at the National Gallery on Prince's Street opening on the 30th September. Best of all, it's entirely free! I was invited down for a special preview of the new Scottish galleries, celebrating 150 years of Scottish art. I'm no artist, but these give an incredible window into the past, such as the historic views of Edinburgh when the original galleries were first being built, including the old North Brid

New to the gallery walls, a self-portrait of Jack Vettriano in his Edinburgh studio with paint-splattered clothes and brush swapped for a cigarette. Painted a year after he created his most famous work, The Singing Butler, the work shows the artist taking a break from painting at his Castle Terrace flat and studio. The light and shade frame a quiet pause, and the marks on his clothes emphasise the task at hand. A self-taught painter from Fife, Vettriano was loved at home in Scotland and internat

One of the twentieth century's most radical art movements, Surrealism sought to challenge convention through the exploration of the subconscious mind, invoking the power of dreams and the element of chance to challenge the establishment of the day. Ahead of the reopening of The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (Modern One) next week, check out our film which asks where this revolutionary movement emerged from, who its key players awere and what legacy it has amongst later artists. ▶️🎥😊

We love welcoming families just like @theolivetreefamily to our Modern galleries and grounds! They spent this fun-filled day exploring exhibitions like Resistance, wandering through the beautiful grounds, and hunting out striking outdoor sculptures - with plenty of time left for snacking and sketching too! Proof that an autumn family day out can be filled with art and fun, come rain or shine! lve | National Galleries of Scotland
