Michael Ashur’s Cosmic Legacy Revisited | Ireland News

Discover the cosmic vision of Michael Ashur, an Irish artist whose space-age canvases—inspired by 70s sci-fi and the space race—are finally getting their due in a major new exhibition. Once celebrated in corporate HQs and RTÉ, his monumental works vanished from public view for decades. Curator Pádraic E Moore, who met Ashur just once, calls this show a long-overdue reckoning with a forgotten giant of Irish art. With themes echoing Pink Floyd and Kubrick, Ashur’s surreal, star-filled worlds now share the stage with contemporary artists exploring the unseen cosmos—proving his visionary gaze still pulses through today’s art scene.
