Kerlin Gallery is a contemporary commercial art gallery in Dublin, Ireland.

History[]

Originally opened in 1988,[3] the gallery's current space was designed in 1994 by architect John Pawson.[4] It is located in central Dublin and has 3,600 square feet of gallery space spread over two floors.[4] In 2015, the Artnet website included the gallery in a list of "Europe’s Top 55 Galleries".[5] David Fitzgerald, Darragh Hogan, and John Kennedy are the gallery's directors.[6]

In 2018, the gallery donated a number of works to the Irish Museum of Modern Art.[2][7]

Selected exhibitions[]

Curated group exhibitions include Newfound Landscape (1998), with Uta Barth, Oliver Boberg, Walter Niedermayer, and Esko Manniko; Kin, with John Currin, Cheryl Donegan, Ellen Gallagher, and Sean Landers, and Architecture Schmarchitecture (2003) with Isa Genzken, Liam Gillick, Roger Hiorns, Jim Lambie, Sarah Moris, and Thomas Scheibitz.[8]

In 2019, the gallery organised Shadowplay with Willie Doherty, Aleana Egan, Liam Gillick, Siobhán Hapaska, and Callum Innes.[9] The title is derived from the song of the same name on Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures album.[6]
