About this event

The AIB Portrait Prize and AIB Young Portrait Prize competitions will showcase contemporary portraiture and invites submissions from artists working in all media across the island of Ireland, and from Irish artists living abroad.

Each year, on average 300+ portraits are submitted. Nearly every county in Ireland has been represented through the application process and over the years, entries from Irish citizens living in countries such as Germany, France, Italy, South Africa, United Kingdom, and the United States of America have been warmly received. Established and emerging artists submit portraits across a broad range of media, from sculpture and video to embroidery and works on paper. The competition plays a vital role in celebrating a range of different practices and interpretations of portraiture.

Free entry, normal Gallery opening hours.
