Join us for the opening event of the ‘Bucolica’ art exhibition, a captivating exploration of the pastoral beauty and the intricate relationship between humans and the natural landscape. This unique exhibition, set in the picturesque Stables Café at Mount Congreve Gardens, brings together artists from across the country to share their interpretations of the bucolic theme. About the Exhibition ‘Bucolica’ challenges and celebrates the concept of the bucolic through diverse artistic lenses. From the tranquil beauty of pastoral landscapes to critical reflections on environmental sustainability, this exhibition offers a multifaceted dialogue about our connection to the natural world. Hosted in the serene environment of Mount Congreve Gardens, the exhibition promises to be a thought-provoking journey through the realms of art, nature, and ecology. The launch event of ‘Bucolica’ concludes the 3-day Art in the Gardens event, an invitation to rekindle our bond with the natural world through the lens of art. Space is limited, so please book to secure your place at this memorable exhibition launch. Paintings ‘Where Bluebirds Fly’ and ‘Way up High’ are reproduced by kind permission of artist Melissa O’Donnell, represented by the Solomon Gallery Dublin.Want to see more?
