SALON OF DIÚLTAÍODH
A joyful uprising in art, spirit, and solidarity.
In 1863, a group of artists rejected by the official Paris Salon sparked something unexpected — not just an exhibition, but a movement. The 𝘚𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯 𝘥𝘦𝘴 𝘙𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘴é𝘴 became a turning point in art history, opening space for bold, new voices and reshaping the future of creativity. This show is offered in that same spirit — a celebration of works that didn’t find a place in the usual halls, but still pulse with life, vision, and possibility. We invite artists to share pieces that were turned away by institutions over the past year — not as an end, but as a beginning. This is about honoring the full creative journey: the misfits, the almosts, the not-yets. It’s about coming together to build something more open, more honest, and more alive. Let’s create a space where refusal becomes resonance — and where connection, not competition, takes the lead.
Curated by @ishmaelclaxtonphotos, Salon of Diúltaíodh is a gathering place for those who make with heart, question the rules, and carry forward the belief that art is for everyone, not just a chosen few. Will have over 50 amazing artist from across the country
