The Olivier Cornet Gallery is delighted to announce its membership of the Contemporary Art Gallery Association (CAGA) of Ireland and its participation in the association's first event: GALLERY OPEN, 27th October 2022.

The Contemporary Art Gallery Association (CAGA) represents private art galleries in Ireland which are committed to the exhibition of contemporary visual art, the promotion of artists’ careers and the expansion of a public audience. CAGA’s primary objective is to raise the profile of the private art gallery sector by raising awareness of its collective activities through engagement with collectors, the media and public bodies

For GALLERY OPEN, visitors to the Olivier Cornet Gallery will be able to enjoy Miriam McConnon's solo exhibition Lost Lace. They will also be able to check out our storage area which features over 250 works by all the other artists we work with. Gallery Director Olivier Cornet will give a short talk at 6:30pm to explain about the genesis of the Lost Lace project and its art exhibition at the gallery.

The Olivier Cornet Gallery, situated on Great Denmark Street in the cultural heart of Dublin 1, boasts a fantastic array of visual art displayed on the ground floor of a fabulous Georgian building. The public gallery consists of two spaces; one for temporary exhibitions and the other a public storage area that houses a treasure trove of cutting edge art both nationally and internationally.
