Open Call for Visual Artists | Faigh Amach (Discover) International Exhibition 2025/ 2026

Faigh Amach (Discover) is a new initiative by Temple Bar Gallery + Studios (TBG+S), Dublin, in partnership with Culture Ireland and Southwark Park Galleries, London, to support an artist in presenting their first international solo exhibition.

Three artists will be selected from the open call to participate in a group exhibition at TBG+S, 31 July — 21 September 2025. Each selected artist will receive €2,000 EUR in an artist fee; up to €2,000 EUR in a production stipend; and curatorial, institutional and marketing support. The exhibiting artists will further be supported by TBG+S in the participation in public engagement programmes.

One of these three exhibiting artists will be invited to present their first international solo exhibition in 2026 at Southwark Park Galleries, London. The selected artist will be paid a fee of £2,000 GBP and a contribution of £4,000 GPB towards production costs. Transport, installation, exhibition opening costs, documentation and other related exhibition costs will be paid by Southwark Park Galleries with contributions from TBG+S and Culture Ireland.

This opportunity is for visual artists living in the 32 counties in Ireland or Irish artists living abroad who have not yet had a solo international exhibition or major exhibition outside of Ireland.
