ARTLINK MEMBERS SHOW 2024
August 3rd – September 1st
Curated by Vanessa Jordan of the 126 Gallery Board of Directors in Galway – and entitled ‘Meitheal’ – the exhibition showcased the works of both new and established artists from Ireland and beyond, bringing together a remarkable array of artistic expressions including painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, performance and film.
The concept of Meitheal – a traditional Irish practice where neighbours unite to support each other during harvests – served as the thematic backbone for the Members Show. Vanessa Jordan, the curator, explained that the exhibition has encouraged Artlink members to submit works exploring the power of collective action and the importance of fostering a sense of community.
