This exhibition presents a selection of works from the Collection of the National College of Art and Design. The Collection has been assembled over many years and reflects aspects of the history of art in Ireland by artists who have taught or are currently teaching at NCAD.

This particular selection of works focuses on painting with an emphasis on the historical, including a significant stained glass work by Harry Clarke.

Traditional skills predominate across the figurative and abstract languages of painting in works by important historical figures and in works produced in the recent past by artists on the College’s staff. The three dimensional works represent different approaches to object making.
