The White Gallery has a changing programme of exhibitions, presenting the work of contemporary Scottish and International artists through solo, retrospective, and thematic exhibitions. The Georgian Gallery is an impressive neoclassical interior, originally designed by William Playfair. Recently refurbished this room now hosts vibrant historic, experimental and academic exhibitions. The upper level of the gallery displays a selection from The University Torrie Collection; a bequest of predominantly seventeenth century Dutch paintings.
