Modern Masters
The Scottish Gallery’s Modern Masters series showcases the Gallery’s unique position and ability to blend meaningful historical insights with the best of Scottish contemporary art.
About Modern Masters
This Festival edition pays homage to Sir William Gillies, a renowned figure in Scottish modern art whose influence on the art scene and local artists still prevails today.
The exhibition also brings together the Peploe family – S.J. Peploe, Denis Peploe, and Clotilde Peploe – in A Legacy in Colour, as well as continuing to highlight women artists that the gallery has championed and represented, including Elizabeth Blackadder, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, and Victoria Crowe.
