‘Revelation’ – a co-production between Graphic Studio Dublin & The National Gallery of Ireland is open at the Pearse Museum.

An exhibition of twenty nine specially commissioned prints created by members of Graphic Studio Dublin and invited artists is hosted at the Pearse Museum, Rathfarnham, Dublin 14, until 31st July 2009. Admission is free.

The concept for the exhibition dates back to 2005 when Graphic Studio Dublin (GSD) approached the National Gallery of Ireland with an idea for an exhibition of prints on a specific subject matter. In collaboration with the Gallery, ‘Revelation’ was chosen as the theme for the show.

Among the artists featured in the exhibition are: Pamela Leonard, Cliona Doyle, Brian Lalor, Yoko Akino, Stephen Lawlor, Robert Russell, Clare Henderson, Tim Goulding, Jean Bardon, Tom Phelan, Lina Nordenstrom, Terence Gravett, Yoko Hara, Nickie Hayden, Sharon Lee, Maev Leneghan, Siobhan Hyde, Kelvin Mann, William Crozier HRHA, Guggi, John Kindness, Carmel Benson, Mary Lohan, Maeve McCarthy RHA, Martin Gale RHA, Donald Teskey RHA, Seán MacSweeney HRHA, Nigel Rolfe and Marta Wakula-Mac.

Raymond Keaveney, Director of the National Gallery of Ireland says: “We are most grateful to all those artists who have contributed to this collaborative venture exploring the nature of revelation and to share with us their insights on this most mysterious and profound concept. This exhibition provides a wonderful vehicle for managing a dialogue between the National Gallery’s collection and contemporary art practice.”

The Pearse Museum is housed in Patrick Pearse’s former home, where he also ran his school, Scoil Eanna. Visitors can see the rooms where Pearse lived and worked. A dedicated exhibition to his brother, the artist, William Pearse is also on display.

It is fitting that an exhibition of work produced at Graphic Studio Dublin, a collective of artists sharing ideas, skills and facilities, and run on a non-profit basis, should be housed in the home that was a centre for nurturing creativity through the school system. Graphic Studio Dublin is supported by the Arts Council.
