- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 12 Nov, 2025 at 05:30 pm – Wed, 12 Nov, 2025 at 06:30 pm
- **Event Description**: When Dublin’s innovative Municipal Gallery of Modern Art opened in 1908, three paintings by Walter Osborne hung on its walls. All were donated by the gallery’s founder, Hugh Lane, who was a great admirer of the artist. After Osborne’s death in 1903, Lane was keen to secure Osborne’s legacy though the acquisition of works by public collections. Come along on a journey through Dublin’s art scene at the turn of the century as Curator Logan Sisley considers the role of art in building Ireland’s national identity and the place of Osborne’s art in that effort.

Logan Sisley hails from New Zealand and studied art history at the University of Aukland. In 2007 he joined the staff of the Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin where he was recently appointed head of collections. He has published extensively on modern art in Ireland, including histories of the Hugh Lane Gallery and studies of John Lavery and Sarah Purser. In 2021 he was the co-curator for the exhibition Studio &amp; State: The Laverys and the Anglo-Irish Treaty.

Before the lecture in the Atrium, we encourage you to explore Walter Osborne’s work on view in the Temporary Exhibition Galleries on Level 2. The exhibition will remain open until the lecture begins.

An American Sign Language interpreter will be provided for this event.
