'On the Irish Photobook' - a significant selection of photo books from Ireland, organised by PhotoIreland in association with Photobook / NZ

In a first for Aotearoa, Irish photobooks will feature in a special exhibition, curated by the founder of PhotoIreland, Ángel Luis González Fernández. The exhibition showcases the diversity of photographic practices in Ireland today. Don’t miss this opportunity to discover many unique, out of print, and rarely seen publications, tracing the rapid evolution of the Irish photobook in the past decade and get to know the many artistic processes behind them. https://www.photobooknz.com/photoireland

Note: this exhibition has a brief run so please take note the dates. Also, allow time to view the exhibition content. There are four free 30-minute parallel parks just outside, between the gallery and Kaffee Eis. There's also plenty of metered parking available nearby (during gallery hours), and a major bus stop. This exhibition will be open 10am-4pm daily, including Sunday 11th Aug.
