Upcoming Exhibitions

The International Mezzotint Festival is a biennial event held in Ekaterinburg, Russia. Now in its fifth edition, the Festival is co-ordinated by Ekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts and represents the world's biggest celebration of the art of contemporary and historical mezzotint engraving. The Festival will be held over the month of August 2019 over a number of venues across Ekaterinburg.
Having exhibited in each of the first four Festivals, and being honoured to accept an award in 2015, this year I will be traveling to Russia to present my work in an three exhibitions: one of contemporary international printmaking; an exhibition of works from the collection of the Ekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts, and; a separate fundraising campaign in support of ocean conservation.
Thanks to the kind invitation of the International Mezzotint Festival organisers and the generous support of Culture Ireland, I will also be involved in the technical demonstrations, talks, and cultural programme which form part of the Festival.

Details of the exhibitions are as follows:
