Coupar’s Camera

Dundee photographer Alex Coupar has recorded our lives and environments since the early 1950s. His body of work is extensive and varied, including news events, advertising, industrial and commercial commissions. Across Scotland, Alex has captured our urban and rural landscapes, our work, leisure and cultural lives across six decades.

This exhibition presents highlights from the Alex Coupar Collection, now held by the University's Archive Services. Focussing on his home city of Dundee, the exhibition reveals some of the many changes and developments recorded by Alex over the years.

Open Mon-Fri 9.30am-7pm, Sat 11am-4pm. Please note that earlier closing may apply on weekdays during the summer vacation. We advise arriving no later than 5pm.
