Our opinion:<\/h3>\n\n<p>Yes, the <strong>Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art<\/strong> is well worth a visit. We really enjoyed this artistic stopover in Edinburgh, for several reasons: <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The gallery is spread over two buildings<em>(Modern One<\/em> and <em>Modern Two<\/em>), in a <strong>green setting<\/strong> far from the hustle and bustle of the city center.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The visit invites contemplation and reflection, between <strong>great names in modern art<\/strong> and <strong>committed contemporary creations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Temporary exhibitions<\/strong> are often immersive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Integrating art into outdoor spaces<\/strong> adds to the pleasure of discovery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>For those of us who appreciate modern art, this is one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/scotland-lovers.com\/en\/best-things-to-do-edinburgh-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">best things to do in Edinburgh<\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Scotland\/Edinburgh\/Scottish-National-Gallery-of-Modern-Art\/i-PjjbRfb\/0\/KRP2FFB93GVqq6Ht9RprDmjr6xmg7m5dVb5Bxvm8c\/L\/do-ho-suh-gallery-modern-art-edinburgh-1-L.jpg\" alt=\"Exhibitions, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art famous?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art is renowned for its collections, which include works by <strong>Picasso<\/strong>, <strong>Pollock<\/strong>, <strong>Klee<\/strong>, <strong>Beuys<\/strong> and others. It also plays a central role in Scotland&#8217;s art scene, hosting <strong>bold<\/strong> and committed <strong>temporary exhibitions<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n\n<p>It is also distinguished by its garden and outdoor installations, such as the <strong><em> Landform<\/em> sculpture<\/strong>, a work by architect and landscape theorist <strong>Charles Jencks<\/strong>. Created in 2001, this undulating installation of lawn and water basins embodies a sculptural approach to landscape inspired by science, geometry and cosmology. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Scotland\/Edinburgh\/Scottish-National-Gallery-of-Modern-Art\/i-KMWr9bf\/0\/MCPbCqDn6j9QQF794gG3WnGrtJ7LMpF5XzP7J2x5h\/L\/landform-gallery-modern-art-edinburgh-L.jpg\" alt=\"Landscape sculpture Landform by Charles Jencks, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Landform<\/em> landscape sculpture by Charles Jencks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our favorite moments<\/h3>\n\n<p>In addition to works by some of the greatest masters of modern and contemporary art, we also enjoyed..:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The contrast between the neoclassical architecture of the buildings and their contemporary layout<\/strong>.

architecture<\/h3>\n\n<p>Even before you step through the doors, art invites itself into the landscape with <em>Landform<\/em>, a large-scale landscape installation by Charles Jencks.
