Silent City

This event has ended

National Gallery of Ireland, Saturday 13th April - Sunday 21st July

‘Silent City’ will explore depictions of the deserted urban landscape across the island of Ireland, comprising photography, painting, print and drawing dating from the 20th and 21st centuries.

Touching on themes of memory, reverie, dereliction, and solitude, this exhibition poses a unique opportunity for visitors to experience new acquisitions and works from the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Ireland featured alongside one another.
