The Seán & Rosemarie Mulcahy Collection Bequest to the Butler Gallery

The Olivier Cornet Gallery is delighted to hear about the Seán and Rosemarie Mulcahy Collection bequest to the Butler Gallery in Kilkenny. We represented the artist Seán Mulcahy (1926-2018) and we are very pleased that one of Seán’s works, namely Placescape IX is in the bequest. Placescape IX (image above) was in Sean’s 2012 solo show at the gallery. See photo of the artist reading a newspaper in the gallery in 2012 with Placescape IX in the corner. This work was included in the exhibition 'The Seán & Rosemarie Mulcahy Collection' which ran at the Butler Gallery in October 2019. See photo here. Another work from the same exhibition -which was a sell out show- was acquired by the OPW. You can read all about that piece here.
