A Call To Gather with Niamh O'Malley, Irish Tour of Venice at Ireland

The Model is delighted to present Niamh O’Malley; Gather – the critically acclaimed exhibition that represented Ireland at the 2022 Venice Biennale. In this unique show, works from Ireland at Venice are brought into an expanded dialogue with a larger selection of O’Malley’s recent artworks. This substantial exhibition also reveals and considers the influence of the west of Ireland on her work. Born Co. Mayo, O’Malley uses many materials including steel, limestone, wood, and glass. She shapes and assembles objects to create a purposeful landscape of forms. Sculptures tall and free-standing, ground-bearing and cantilevered sit alongside rhythmic and looped moving image. This exhibition is a call to gather. It invites movement and communality. It is both lure and demand, for touch, encounter, and occupancy.

The Irish Tour of Ireland at Venice is supported by the Arts Council as part of its commitment to promote the visual arts to Irish audiences. Curated by Cliodhna Shaffrey and Michael Hill.

The exhibition in The Model will be the only venue in the Irish Tour to host Niamh O’Malley’s ‘Gather’ exhibition from La Biennale di Venezia in its entirety.
