About this event

At a time when questions about climate change are both critical and contested, this exhibition explores the environmental and social significance of water. Why are we having more extreme floods? Are our rivers polluted? Is our drinking water supply safe? Showcasing the work of the University’s UNESCO Centre for Water Law, Policy & Science (celebrating its 20th anniversary this year), artist-in-residence Jean Duncan presents a series of artworks in response to these themes, alongside historic environmental records from the University Archives and related art and artefacts from the Museum Collections.

The exhibition is open Monday-Friday 9.30am-7pm (last entry 5pm). If you have any queries please contact museum@dundee.ac.uk or 01382 384310.
