About The Scottish Colourists with The Fleming Collection

Meet Theo Albano, Director of the Fleming Collection, at Dovecot as we say farewell to the Scottish Colourists. On Sunday 29 June, Theo Albano will be available in the exhibition between 11am and 12.30pm to provide behind the scenes insights on key loans and to discuss the curatorial ideas behind the exhibition selection.

Discover the groundbreaking exhibition in partnership with the Fleming Collection, which for the first time showcases the Scottish Colourists in the context of their European contemporaries, interrogating how this international generation of radical painters forged a new language of colour in the early 20th century.
