NCAD Gallery Mission Statement 2013
NCAD Gallery is the public face of the National College of Art and Design (NCAD). The Gallery supports contemporary practice and critical debate in visual arts practices and aims to reflect the diversity and strengths of the college by developing and promoting the future of art and design in Ireland.
Its central objective is to communicate effectively, through exhibitions and public programmes, the role that NCAD and the gallery play in the production, discussion, education and exhibition of visual arts practices.
NCAD Gallery is a space for research and debate. It provides the resources to facilitate contemporary discourse pertinent to art and design practitioners.
It acts as a gateway in and out of the college. It connects the active research and practice conducted at the college with wider local, national and international audiences.
The gallery plays a central role in developing local, national and international connections between other relevant institutions or bodies with a view to availing of significant exhibitions, providing opportunities for students and staff and providing other places for shows originating in the gallery to exhibit.
The exhibitions programme plays a significant and meaningful educational role. It provides a context of contemporary practice in the immediate environment of NCAD. The gallery provides the opportunity for students, staff, invited practitioners, curators and theorists to experiment with, develop and publicly display their work.
