Tour of Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone. The Art of Friendship exhibition (Members and Fellows event)

Thursday 22 May 2025
7pm

NGI’s new exhibition is dedicated to the pioneering Irish modernists Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone, and brings together 90 of their works of art. It explores their friendship and shared experiences while studying in Paris during the early 1920s and traces their careers back to Ireland. Featuring paintings, stained glass, and preparatory drawings, it reveals how both women were trailblazers in Irish art although remaining connected to conventional themes such as religion and landscape.
