Welcome to the University of Dundee Museum Services
Our fascinating collections cover a wide range of objects of artistic, historical and scientific interest.
OBJECT OF THE MONTH
Drawing by Dina Mackins made from gunpowder, homemade ink, charcoals and ash on paper, 2015. During her postgraduate study at DJCAD, Dina developed the technique of creating drawings with ink combined with explosive materials which were ignited in controlled conditions to create the finished artworks. This and many other amazing works are currently on show in the Lamb Gallery in A Legacy of Art & Design in Dundee
The University has over 30,000 historic artefacts, artworks and specimens acquired during the 136 years of the institution's existence. These are cared for by Museum Services, which has been awarded Full Accreditation as a public museum service.
