The Hunterian Art Gallery holds one of the most distinguished public art collections in Scotland, including an important collection of works by leading contemporary artists.
Over the years The Hunterian has developed an important collection of works by leading contemporary artists. New acquisitions seek to complement and investigate the museum’s permanent collections, including notable pieces by Lucy Skaer, Ilana Halperin, Mat Collishaw, Mark Dion and Christine Borland. We continue to build on this collection, acquiring works by artists whose artistic concerns extend the relevance of our programme to individuals and communities that have had relatively little chance to see their own experience reflected within our galleries in the past.
