Parklife, Celebrating 65 years of Graphic Studio Dublin

OPENING | 4 October

In celebration of the 65th anniversary of Graphic Studio Dublin, Parklife: A Printed Landscape brings together artists in a vibrant tribute to the city’s green spaces, supported by IPUT Real Estate Dublin. 

Through its gallery and studios, Graphic Studio Dublin has long been a vital space for artists to create, exhibit, and engage with the printmaking.

For Parklife each participating artist has responded to one of 15 iconic Dublin parks. Created to mark the 65th anniversary of Graphic Studio Dublin, Parklife explores themes of landscape, memory, and place through original fine art prints.

Graphic Studio Dublin is extremely grateful to our principal supporter, IPUT Real Estate Dublin, as well as to the Office of Public Works (OPW) for generously providing the Cowshed Gallery as the opening venue for our 65th anniversary exhibition.

Parklife: A printed landscape continues to 25th October.
Cowshed Gallery opening hours: 11am – 5pm, Wednesday to Sunday
