Join us next summer for the 196th RHA Annual Exhibition in association with McCann FitzGerald featuring painting, print, sculpture, drawing, photography, mixed media and architectural models. Irelands' largest and longest-running open submission exhibition will be open to the public from Monday 25 May to Sunday 9 August with free admission, at all times.
With the largest artistic prize fund available to artists, across different medium, the RHA Annual exhibition attracts the highest calibre of artists working today. Exhibitors include RHA Academy members, invited artists and 300+ artists whose work was selected through the, highly competitive, open submission process. With works ranging in price from €50 to €60,000, this show is a must-see for both those new to buying art to the discerning collector.
Major awards include the Hennessy Craig Award of €20,000 and the Homan Potterton Award of €10,000, both awarded to a painter under the age of 35, exhibiting in the RHA Annual Exhibition, who has studied at a recognised art college in Ireland. For previous information, see Here.
