Opening Reception Friday 7 June at 7pm • A €3000 art prize, now in its 34th year • Selected by Stephen McKenna PPRHA and Amelia Stein RHA

One of the longest running and respected art prizes in the calendar, the exhibition that results from this Open Submission will enjoy a three-month exhibition at VISUAL Centre for Contemporary Art, from June 7th to September 8th.

Artists Stephen McKenna and Amelia Stein have made this year’s selection, with selected local, national and international works sitting alongside five ‘invited’ artists – Gary Coyle, Richard Gorman, Eithne Jordan, Jim Savage and Dorothy Cross – who will each be offering a new or recent work for the show.

Supported by Carlow Local Authorities Arts Office and VISUAL Centre for Contemporary Art.

We would like to thank the ebow gallery in Dublin for allowing their Castle Street premises to receive artists’ works for this exhibition.
