A very angelic October

The Model is a hive of activity these last few weeks with the installation of a very exciting exhibition by two of the world’s greatest living artists. Angelology, a new large-scale installation by Ilya and Emilia Kabakov opens at The Model next Friday, Oct 22 from 6 – 8pm and we would be delighted if you could join us for the opening event.

Angelology takes the theme of angels our imagination and romanticisation of angels, in particular  and includes paintings, sculpture and mixed-media installations that will entirely fill the galleries at The Model.

A discussion between our Director / Curator Seamus Kealy and the artists on Angelology precedes the opening at 5.30pm.

A violin concert by the Kabakovs’ 14-year-old grandson, Joseph Morag, who is an internationally accomplished classical violinist, accompanies the opening.

Another unique element of the opening weekend happens on Sat, 23 Oct. from 11am – 1pm. Angelic Conversations is a guided gallery tour of Angelology aimed at eight to 12 year-olds.
