The Largest Art Exhibition In Northern Ireland To Be Displayed At Culloden Estate Hotel & Spa

In what is to be the largest collection of art ever showcased in Northern Ireland, the Culloden Estate & Spa will host the work of international and Irish artists in its 12-acre grounds from 15th to 30th June, 2019. Set in the regal private gardens of the hotel and spa, the work of celebrated artists such as Andy Warhol, street artist Banksy, Picasso, and Lucien Freud will be displayed for guests to explore and discover.

Appropriately christened ‘Art in the garden’, the pioneering exhibition will be displayed both in the primed gardens on the grounds of the Culloden Estate & Spa and within the hotel in rooms dedicated to the artists, most notably featuring over 120 sculptures from Salvador Dalí’s venerated collection, Dalí Universe.

Other artists featured will include Damien Hirst, Robert Indiana, Grayson Perry, Tom Wesselmann, Keith Haring, Julian Opie and acclaimed Irish artists such as Peter Monaghan, Stephen Johnston, Ian Pollock, Patrick O’Reilly, Stephen Forbes, Kenneth Webb, and Orla De Brí.

Should guests be new to the art exhibition sphere, we would suggest timing your visit in conjunction with the guided tours around ‘Art in the Garden’ installations taking place at 2:00 pm, 4:00 pm, and 6:00 pm each day.
