National Gallery of Ireland | Dublin, DN
We'll be partnering once again with the French Embassy on the interactive art display Painting Mirrors, when our historic façade will be lit up by a digital display of portraits taken on the night in our special photo booth. Fun for all ages, join in and have your portrait captured and instantly mirrored on the Gallery walls in the style of iconic artists like Monet, Cézanne, Morisot and Jellett. Be our muse and become part of this immersive experience inspired by Irish, French, and European chefs-d’œuvre from the Gallery's collection, all set to live DJ sets!
From 5pm until 8pm on the night, we'll have regularly scheduled guided tours minutes with different themes and focuses, including Family Favourites, Spanish Food in Art, explorations of LGBTQIA+ art, sketching sessions and accessible tours.
Another highlight of the evening will be a special display in our Prints and Drawings Study Room, where you'll be able to view rarely seen works on paper, including preparatory sketches of beloved masterpieces and hidden gems from the national collection.
