Frommer's Review
Opening in 1999 across the way from the Scottish Gallery of Modern Art, the Dean Gallery provides a home for surrealist art and includes a replication of the studio of Leith-born pop art pioneer Eduardo Paolozzi. He gave an extensive body of his private collection to the National Galleries of Scotland, including prints, drawings, plaster maquettes, and molds. The artist's mammoth composition of the robotic Vulcan dominates the entrance hall. Elsewhere works by Salvador Dalí, Max Ernst, and Joan Miró are displayed, while the Dean also hosts traveling and special exhibitions of modern art.
