Sculpture at Montenotte
Continuing its commitment to the arts, The Montenotte in Cork is staging its annual Sculpture Exhibition, in collaboration with The Kildare Gallery. Focused on the theme of “Take Your Imagination on a Journey of Wonder”, this collection features contemporary works from both renowned and up-and-coming Irish and international sculptors – Dawn Conn, Merce Canadell, Simon Hayes, Petr Holecek and Valentin Bostan.
Now in its sixth year, the exhibition has become an annual tradition, showcasing The Montenotte’s dedication to supporting the arts and highlighting its vibrant design ethos. Renowned for featuring both established and emerging artists, The Kildare Gallery has a significant presence at Ireland’s largest garden festival, Bord Bia Bloom, where they have been awarded numerous medals over the years. For this year's Sculpture Exhibition, The Kildare Gallery has selected 40 pieces from 22 artists, curating their placement within The Montenotte’s garden.
Frits Potgieter, general manager at The Montenotte, said:
“At The Montenotte, we are deeply committed to celebrating and supporting the arts. Our annual Sculpture Exhibition not only enriches our guests' experiences but also provides an opportunity to celebrate emerging talent and support the vibrant arts scene of Cork and beyond. We are delighted to continue working with The Kildare Gallery and look forward to the further growth and success of this cultural tradition.”
The Sculpture Exhibition is open daily from 10am at The Montenotte until mid-August.
