Officially the 'Pig Rock Bothy', part of GENERATION: 25 Years of Contemporary Art in Scotland. Created by The Bothy Project LinkExternal link - this rickety looking structure is the work of artist Bobby Niven and architect Iain MacLeod. The temporary structure was/will be the venue for a dynamic and varied programme of talks, performances, events and screenings. LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link )
National Gallery of Modern Art

The National Gallery of Modern Art was built in 1822 as John Watson's School, and based on designs by William Burn, it was converted in the 1980s into The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art. It has a grassy area in front with some weatherproof sculptures.
Everyone will enjoy visiting this fine and at times idiosyncratic collection of 20th century paintings, drawings, prints, and sculpture, many international and many from Scotland.
