Taylor Galleries

Taylor Galleries is a gallery based in Dublin that shows a selection of contemporary and 20th century Irish painting, sculpture, print and works on paper. Throughout the year Taylor Galleries mounts a series of solo exhibitions by gallery artists and two large group shows, one in August and one over the Christmas period. The gallery’s exhibition space is situated over two floors of a Georgian house which dates from 1759.
Taylor Galleries was founded by John Taylor in 1978 and a number of gallery artists were inherited from Leo Smith’s Dawson Gallery. The Dawson Gallery was established by Smith in 1944 at 4 Dawson Street, Dublin 2 following his departure from the Victor Waddington Gallery.
John Taylor, who had worked with Smith since 1964, continued to run the Dawson Gallery until it closed in 1978, opening Taylor Galleries in its place in the same year at 6 Dawson Street. In 1990 Taylor Galleries relocated to smaller premises at 34 Kildare Street before moving up the road to the current space at 16 Kildare Street in 1996. Today Taylor Galleries is managed by John and his brother Patrick Taylor.
In addition to representing select artists living and working in or originally from Ireland, the gallery also represents the estates of Charles Brady, William Crozier, Conor Fallon, Micheal Farrell, T.P. Flanagan, Nancy Wynne Jones, Louis le Brocquy, Tony O’Malley and Patrick Scott.
*Please note that the gallery does NOT accept unsolicited submissions from artists*

Occupy Space

OCCUPY SPACE'S VENUE IS NOW CLOSED, BUT OCCUPY SPACE (THE ORGANISATION) IS CONTINUING TO ORGANISE EVENTS AROUND LIMERICK

Occupy Space is Limerick's newest exhibition space, located on Thomas Street. It has been set up to facilitate an ever expanding need for artistic exhibition spaces in limerick. It is an artist led project, run by members of Wickham Street Studios on a voluntary basis. Occupy Space is committed to delivering a relentlessly energetic programme of exhibitions and events.

Our intention is that this space will be a central axis for a huge variety of creative people to experiment and present their work. The organization will encourage openness and accessibility to artists and the visiting public alike, and aims to provide an open solid platform for the visual arts. Our program will involve hosting exhibitions of emerging and established artists, with a strong emphasis on exhibiting those based in limerick. Occupy space will also host other artist led projects such as artists talks, seminars and collaborative events with other creative practitioners and organizations.

CIT Wandesford Quay Gallery

The establishment of the Wandesford Quay Gallery as a creative space under the direction of the Crawford College of Art and Design is a significant step towards the advancement of a culture of creativity within the institution itself and between the institution and the broader community and region.
The gallery is a space that connects the Crawford College of Art & Design as part of the Cork Institute of Technology to the broader cultural community which is perceived to exist both locally and internationally. The goal of this connection is to cultivate. The concept of cultivation that is promoted here is not however one that assumes a didactic footing but instead one of a circular dialogue stimulated, on the one hand, amongst those across academic boundaries within the institution and on the other by an interaction with the knowledge base that exists in the outside community.
The philosophy of the Wandesford Quay initiative therefore is one that recognises creative expression within all disciplines while striving to stimulate a network of interest between them. It also engenders the spirit of human creativity while acknowledging all who care enough to manifest it. It stands to encourage all forms of learning through dialogue independent of the languages through which we choose to communicate.

Return, The

A unique Georgian extension of the Goethe-Institut Dublin was converted into The Return gallery in September 2002.

Works by Irish, German and international artists are displayed in the gallery.

Room specific installations have very successfully promoted young artistic talent, and commissioned exhibitions have attracted steadily increasing attention for the "newest and smallest gallery in the country" (The Irish Times) on the Irish art and visual media scenes.

The commited collaboration of its curators Mark Garry, Georgina Jackson and Jonathan Carroll has contributed to the gallery's success story. In choosing "their" artists, they have invested much effort in developing projects and building artistic relations and networks.
