Jack Butler Yeats;<br />

Assembled Memories<br />

Thu. 3 <strong>Jun</strong>. – Sun. 12 <strong>Sep</strong>. 2021<br />

We are delighted to present a<br />

selection of works by Jack Butler<br />

Yeats from one of the most<br />

exciting holdings of his paintings<br />

in existence. Sligo’s Municipal<br />

Collection, named after the<br />

visionary Nora Niland, includes<br />

some of the finest work by Yeats<br />

across every phase of his long<br />

creative practice. This exhibition<br />

focuses on the artist’s work in<br />

oils, from politically themed<br />

paintings of the 1920s to his late<br />

great visionary masterworks of<br />

the 1940s & 50s. Each year, <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Model</strong> casts new light on the long<br />

career of Jack Butler Yeats, and<br />

activates <strong>The</strong> Niland Collection<br />

through new visual art, music<br />

and performance commissions, as<br />

well as through specially curated<br />

programmes for children in<br />

schools, and events for people of<br />

all ages.<br />
