Aberdeen Art Gallery’s first major exhibition of 2012, From Van Gogh to Vettriano – Hidden Gems from Private Collections opens to the public on Saturday 4 February.
This unique exhibition will give visitors a wonderful opportunity to view international art from the 1870s to the present day which is being shown together in public for the first time. This outstanding selection of paintings and sculpture has been drawn from a number of private collections in the North-east. They illustrate the area’s long and rich tradition of supporting and collecting modern and contemporary art. There will be free artist-led master classes for 14-19 year olds during the spring holidays and older people will have the chance to learn new skills in special workshops inspired by the exhibition.
