The Paul Kane Gallery was established in 1997 -in its original venue in South William St.-to promote the work of contemporary Irish artists through a regular program of exhibitions, both in South William St. and elsewhere

As one of the original alternative spaces of the 90's The Paul Kane Gallery has shown the work of many of the foremost young Irish artists to have emerged over the last decade including Philippa Sutherland, Megan Eustace and Roisin McGuigan as well as more established artists such as Marc Reilly, Hazel Walker, and Veronica Bolay R.H.A..

Passing through

In it's new space at 6 Merrion Square, The Paul Kane Gallery continues as before but is widening its remit to include a selection of International Artists such as Tom Hammick, Basil Beattie, and Jane Bustin.
