V&A to present first major exhibition focusing on tartan in Scotland in 30 years

The V&A Dundee is set to host the first major exhibition in Scotland focusing on tartan in 30 years.

Simply titled Tartan, the exhibition will open on April 1 and run through to January 14, 2024. It will present a "radical new look" at the instantly recognisable textile and pattern.

Celebrating tartan and its global impact, the exhibition explores how the patterned cloth has connected and divided communities all over the world, how it has embraced tradition, expressed revolt, and inspired great works of art as well as playful and provocative designs.
