The Olivier Cornet Gallery is a repeat participant of National Heritage Week. Check out our 2025 project with David Fox's Ridge of Capard painting, our 2024 project with Miriam McConnon's paintings of male suit jackets from The Refugee's Armour series, our 2023 project with Hugh Cummins's homage to André-Charles Boulle, our 2022 project with Annika Berglund's interest in locally-bred wool and her feltwork practice, our 2021 project with Eoin Mac Lochlainn's Harold’s Cross Heritage Apple Trees and our 2020 project with Yanny Petter's wonderful Calla Lily Blue for instance.

In view of the theme for National Heritage Week 2026, Heritage at Risk, we invited the artist Colin Eaton to reflect on a series of works which featured in Out of Lines, our 2025 show on art deco

Here is a good description of our recently-renovated building at 3 Great Denmark Street, as described by www.buildingsofireland.ie:

"Rising above the adjoining buildings, No. 3 Great Denmark Street conforms to the plot size and detailing of many houses developed by John Ensor (1715-87), the architect and developer who was involved in the development of much of eighteenth-century Dublin. The building retains a good doorcase, similar to others on the street. The appropriate timber sash windows contribute substantially to the architectural character of this Georgian house, and the retention of the original railings, gate and plinth, and steps to the entrance, all provide context, an excellent street edge, and contribute to the architectural and streetscape quality of this impressive street."

Do you know that no. 3 was once the town residence of the Lord Norbury, better known as The Hanging Judge?
