Sculpture In Context
Sculpture in Context is the longest running, most prestigious sculpture exhibition in Ireland. Staged annually in the National Botanic Gardens in Dublin, this unique exhibition showcases the inspiring and extraordinary work of both established and emerging artists throughout the magnificent 50 acres of landscaped gardens located in Glasnevin, just three kilometres from Dublin City Centre.
Exhibition on display from Thursday 7th Sept to Friday 13th October.
For Sale
The 12 glass houses hold immense symbolic significance as each structure is priced according to the average rent in Dublin during the exhibition, with fluctuating rent rates corresponding to the fluctuation of the house's price. The 12 houses, therefore, represent one year of renting in Dublin, highlighting the pressing issue of the housing crisis.
The current average Dublin rent is €2344
