Organised by Art UK
The latest in the Art Unlocked series. Join Art UK and University of Dundee Museums in exploring selected artworks from their collection.
About this event
Art Unlocked is an online event series brought to you by Art UK in collaboration with Bloomberg Philanthropies. Each week, different museum and gallery curators and directors from across the UK will deliver a 30-minute talk on selected works from their collection.
For our latest talk, join Art UK and Matthew Jarron, Curator at University of Dundee Museums, for an exciting exploration of some notable works from this collection on 7th September 2022, 5:30pm.
Art Unlocked is delivered over Zoom Webinar and can be accessed via the event page once you have registered. There will be a short Q&A session after the talk.
The talk is free but there is the option to donate to University of Dundee Museums alongside your ticket. Any donations are much appreciated and go towards supporting the UK's national collection.
