| | UVA Art Museum - Irish Art Exhibition |
 | | The paintings, sculpture, photographs, prints, mixed media, and video works are drawn primarily from the collection of the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA), with additional loans from Dublin galleries, artists, and private collectors. |
 | | A complete roster of artists follows: Dorothy Cross, Shane Cullen, Willie Doherty, Mary Donnelly, Francis Mark, Brian Kennedy, John Kindness, Mary Lohan, Alice Maher, Caroline McCarthy, Janet Mullarney, Fionnuala Ni Chiosáin, Sydney Nolan, Paul Nugent, Eilis OConnell, Geraldine OReilly, Michael OSullivan, Kathy Prendergast, and Paul Seawright. |
 | | One of the major highlights of the exhibition is Shane Cullens text-based Fragments sur les Institutions Republicain IV, an installation that re-presents the transcriptions of actual communiqués smuggled out of the Maze Prison during the hunger strike of the 1980s (the originals are now in the collection of the National Library of Ireland). |
