'Paint the Town Green: The Hidden History of Irish Art' at Mall Galleries
May 20, 2015

Paint the Town Green is the first major show of Irish art in London for over 30 years. This exhibition at the Mall Galleries '...reveals a century’s worth of poetry and protest on canvas' according to the Guardian.


Featuring work by ACS artists Hughie O'Donoghue and Mainie Jellett, this exhibition assembles work initially collected by the Allied Irish Banks (AIB) and then made available to the nation after the financial crisis.
