Limerick artists to curate exhibition in London
It will run from January 8 to January 28 and is open to the public
LIMERICK artists Joe Duggan and Orla Jackson are curating a new exhibition of Irish Art at the Embassy of Ireland in London.
It celebrates both established and emerging Irish visual artists who have made London their creative home. This dynamic exhibition showcases a diverse array of works in sculpture, painting, and printmaking, capturing the richness of Irish artistic talent and its distinctive presence within the UK’s cultural scene.
Irish Ambassador to Great Britain Martin Fraser said: “As Ambassador of Ireland in London, I am proud to host this landmark exhibition of established and emerging Irish artists here at the Embassy... I look forward to the dialogue that this exhibition sparks about Irish art.” This exhibition will run from January 8 to January 28 and is open to the public during bookable day and evening timeslots.
The exhibition’s official launch, hosted by Ambassador Martin Fraser, took place on Monday, January 13.
The Embassy will host a panel discussion with distinguished guest speakers who will explore the exhibition theme of Irish art today on Tuesday, January 21.
This discussion aims to examine evolving narratives, address challenges, and provoke thought on the current and future role of Irish art within the UK cultural landscape. This event is by invitation only, but there will be a number of tickets released for the general public on the Embassy’s social media platforms this month.
