Galway Arts Festival Unveils Bold New Exhibitions

Galway’s arts scene is exploding this year as the Galway International Arts Festival unveils a dazzling lineup of visual exhibitions across the city. Sean Henry’s monumental “Presence” sculptures take over public spaces like Eyre Square, inviting viewers to reflect on community and connection. At Printworks Gallery, Jackie Nickerson’s “Stateside” captures modern America’s identity shifts, Lorraine Tuck’s “Limbo” evokes resilience through landscapes, and Dolores Lyne’s “Rebel Kin” uncovers political fractures via historical letters. A heartfelt tribute to Gertrude Degenhardt’s wit and West of Ireland spirit shines in “Ómós” at Kenny Gallery. Ireland’s Venice Biennale pavilion “Assembly” explores collective futures at the University of Galway, while Aleana Egan’s “A Maritime Child” reimagines the Interface’s salmon hatchery past, and John Rainey’s reinterpreted classical sculptures breathe new life at the Galway Arts Centre.
