Three paintings by Jack B. Yeats from the Collection are on loan to The Model, Sligo for summer 2024.
The Wandering Gaze / An Misló Swuner presents a collection of images relative to Travelling people in the work of Jack B. Yeats (1871-1957).
Highlighting Yeats’ keen observations of diversity amongst nomadic groups within Irish society in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the exhibition includes sketchbook drawings, illustrated prints, watercolours, and oil paintings spanning the breath of his career.
The exhibition was developed with participants from the Sligo Traveller Support Group working with Oein DeBhairduin, writer and Traveller Culture Collections Development Officer at the National Museum of Ireland.
Check venue for opening hours and admission details.
