Please join us in the gallery for an insightful and in-depth curator talk with Eamonn Maxwell, focussing on the pieces in Hivernal – our current exhibition.

In an Open Call, artists living in Roscommon and its bordering counties – Galway, Leitrim, Longford, Mayo, Offaly, Sligo and Westmeath – were invited to respond to the theme of the changing seasons – in particular the transition from Autumn (Lúnasa) into Winter (Samhain), the celebration of Halloween and the fading light at this time of year.

Eamonn Maxwell is a curator and has curated significant exhibitions by leading international and Irish artists including the Irish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Previous roles have included

Collection Advisor for The Arts Council, Director of Lismore Castle Arts and Inaugural University Curator at University of the Arts London.
