The idea of the west of Ireland, as much as the reality, was vital for WB Yeats and Jack B Yeats. This co-operative project, involving the Model and NUI Galway, considers WB’s involvement with the Irish west through a wealth of documentary and artistic material. These include a display of the Model’s recently acquired Cuala Press Broadsides, designed by Jack B with hand-coloured illustrations. There is a detailed accompanying programme of lectures.
NB every Thursday Curators Tour at 1pm and at 6pm Talks. This Thursday the following:
