RDS Visual Art Awards Exhibition 2022

The RDS Visual Art Awards is the most important platform for visual art graduates in Ireland. It provides a curated exhibition opportunity and a significant prize fund of over €30,000, as well as vital exposure for emerging visual artists as they move into early professional practice. This year the Awards will be held at the RDS Concert Hall, Ballsbridge where a purpose-built gallery space designed by curator Aideen Barry, will be created especially for this year’s show. The 13 exhibiting artists are some of the best BA & MA visual art graduates from all over Ireland, who have gone through a highly competitive two-stage process to get their work into this coveted annual show. The 2022 exhibition runs from 21 to 29 October.
