This is the companion book to the National Gallery of Ireland's Spring 2025 exhibition, Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone. The Art of Friendship.
This major exhibition dedicated to the pioneering Irish modernists Mainie Jellett and Evie Hone, brings together 90 of their works of art.
It explores their friendship and shared experiences while studying in Paris during the early 1920s, and traces their careers back to Ireland. The exhibition highlights the early convergences and later divergences in their styles as they developed distinct artistic voices. Featuring paintings, stained glass, and preparatory drawings, it reveals how both women were trailblazers in Irish art although remaining connected to conventional themes such as religion and landscape.
Written by Niamh MacNally and Brendan Rooney. With texts by Sarah McAuliffe and Joseph McBrinn.
