Join us for a captivating conversation as Anne Hodge, curator of Turner's Watercolours: Scotland's Vaughan Bequest, sits down with renowned contemporary artist Niall Naessens, who in 2018 produced work inspired by Turner for a Print Gallery exhibition Good Morning Mister Turner. Together, they will explore the timeless beauty of Turner's works and their resonance in contemporary art.

  • The talk will take place in the Education studio and will include tea/coffee biscuits and plenty of chat!
  • The Education Studio is on level 1 of the Gallery and is fully accessible by lift from the Clare Street Entrance. It is at the same level as the Merrion Square Entrance. Toilets, accessible toilets, baby changing, and a Changing Places facility are located near the Studio and the Education Team are on-hand to support.
  • This event is part of our Tuesday Talk and Tea series, an informal discussion about an aspect of the Gallery’s collection or an exhibition. It involves a short illustrated talk followed by a discussion with the audience over a cup of tea (or coffee, of course!).
