Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre is delighted to present Brian Lalor: Retrospective, a retrospective survey exhibition of the work of West Cork-based artist and writer Brian Lalor. Curated by art historian Vera Ryan and including work from the seventies to the present, this exhibition provides an opportunity to explore the breadth of Brian Lalor’s practice over almost six decades and serves as a tribute to his lifelong dedication and contribution to Ireland's cultural heritage.

Brian Lalor has exhibited his prints and drawings internationally, while his books have been published in many countries. The recipient of numerous awards, he has occupied leadership positions in a wide range of organisations across the associated disciplines of art, architecture, archaeology, arts administration, editing and curating. Now in his eighties, Brian Lalor has made an enormous contribution to the artistic and cultural life of Ireland and this ambitious retrospective at Uillinn acknowledges and celebrates his life’s work.
