Light Falls: Ode to Baggotonia | Gerard Byrne at Gerard Byrne Studio

Event Details

Exhibition continues 20 September – 1 November 2025.

Gerard Byrne, Artist of the Baggotonia Festival 2025 presents ‘Light Falls: Ode to Baggotonia’, set in his intimate Ranelagh studio + gallery. Byrne captures Dublin’s unique light—the glow between buildings, canal shimmers, shadows folding into foliage. The show features contemplative still lifes, dreamy urbanscapes, and bold figuratives. Reflecting on Georgian streets and the city’s Bohemian soul where Beckett, Behan, and Bacon once walked, Byrne transforms everyday sights into lyrical meditations on light, memory, and place—continuing Ireland’s Impressionist legacy with contemporary insight.
