I warmly welcome the news that Titian's masterpiece Diana and Actaeon is to come to the newly refurbished McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery and Museum in August and September. The press release from the National Galleries in Edinburgh and London which highlights the co-operation between the UK and Scottish Government can be found here. The Titian masterpiece Diana and Actaeon is to be exhibited at the McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery and Museum between August 6th and September 5th.
This is great news for Dundee. The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery and Museum is looking really good and I think that this will be the icing on the cake. I know that many Dundonians are looking forward to the re-opening of the McManus and the chance to revisit some well known pieces. Even within the refurbished McManus there will be some new and exciting exhibits and the temporary exhibition of this masterpiece will be a very welcome addition.
I first raised the possibility of hosting a temporary exhibition of the Titian when I was Convener of Leisure, Arts and Communities. I think that it is excellent news that national institutions such as the National Gallery of Scotland and the National Gallery in London recognise that the best in art and culture should not only be found in London, Glasgow or Edinburgh. Dundee has a well deserved and growing reputation for cultural and artistic excellence the re-opening of the McManus will enhance this as will this temporary exhibition of the Titian's Diana and Actaeon.
I would like to thank all those involved in securing this important work's visit to Dundee, which recognises Dundee's position as major cultural centre within the United Kingdom.
