Irish art on show in London - Heritage shared

A COLLABORATION between the Crawford Art Gallery in Cork and Allied Irish Banks will bring some of the best of Irish art created in the last century to London for a prestigious exhibition in May.

The 70-plus works involved come from the bank’s collection which was established in 1980 with the objective of preserving and supporting this key aspect of Ireland’s heritage.

This will be the first major exhibition of Irish art in London in over 30 years and, apart from bringing pleasure to those who will visit it at the Mall Gallery, it will mark another positive step in our ever-changing relationship with our nearest neighbours.
