THE IMOGEN EXHIBITION is now open. Described by the Office of Public Works as “a celebration of Imogen Stuart’s long career spanning more than seven decades”.

Born in Germany in 1927 Stuart moved to Ireland in 1948 where she carved out a career that made her one of Ireland’s foremost sculptors. 

“I am so happy to have my work on display in the beautiful Coach House Gallery here in Dublin Castle” she said. 

The exhibition is set to run from 3 November to 18 February next year. It is open daily between 10am and 5pm (closed between 1:15 and 1:45pm) and admission is free.
