Sidelong Glances: An Oblique Look at the Sea | Group Exhibition at Wexford Arts Centre

Event Details

This exhibition features work from IMMA’s National Collection and invited artists, including Orla Barry, Herman Braun-Vega, Gary Coyle, Ann Hamilton, Ailbhe Ní Bhriain, Kathy Prendergast, and Marisa Rappard.

The exhibition takes its inspiration from a poem written by Marianne Moore in 1921 titled “The Grave.” The poem stems from Moore’s personal experience of observing the sea with her mother, where her brother’s intrusion on their view inspired reflections on the human tendency to focus on the immediate rather than the larger picture.
