The highlight of the Royal Scottish Academy’s year-round exhibition programme, the Annual Exhibition in Edinburgh is the largest and longest-running exhibition of contemporary art in Scotland, providing a platform for painting, sculpture, film, printmaking, photography and installation alongside work by some of the country’s leading architects. This year is the 197th edition of the exhibition, encompassing physical and digital work, and combining the exhibition of artworks on display in the galleries with those shown online, with some exclusively designed as such and others as companions to work in the galleries. 

The RSA participates in the Own Art scheme, which enables collectors to purchase artwork in 10 monthly, interest-free instalments.
