Modern Galleries

14 December 2022 – 14 February 2023

For a limited time only, Crawford Art Gallery’s annual exhibition of Harry Clarke’s watercolours and ink drawings returns!

OTHER WORLDS explores Harry Clarke’s extraordinary capacity for conjuring images from literature and bringing often romantic or macabre worlds into being.

From his delicate blue-tinged watercolour studies for The Eve of St Agnes to the pen-and-ink illustrations for the tales of Edgar Allan Poe, Clarke translated his vivid imagination into remarkable works that have been in the collection for almost a century.

OTHER WORLDS also includes Four Dreams of Paradise (c.1972) by Salvador Dalí and works by Jan de Fouw and Brianna Hurley.
