Temple Bar Gallery and Studios (TBG&S) is one of Ireland’s leading contemporary art venues. Centrally located in Dublin’s cultural quarter, TBG&S is a publicly-funded, not-for-profit arts organisation. The company was established by artists in 1983 and is dedicated to the promotion, presentation and mediation of contemporary visual art and to the provision of affordable studio space to professional artists. The custom-designed building, which is distinctive for its clean modernist lines, integrates a spacious gallery at ground floor, an impressive atrium space and thirty artists’ studios over three floors.
The use of the studios at Temple Bar Gallery and Studios reflects the broad-ranging developments in contemporary art practice. The ethos of the organisation is to provide support for Irish and International artists to make new work and set challenges in their practice.
There is an annual open call to Irish and international artists for applications to the studios programme. All applications are placed before a selection panel and studios are awarded to artists on a competitive basis.
