Douglas Hyde Gallery

The Douglas Hyde Gallery is a publicly funded contemporary art gallery located in Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. It is named for Douglas Hyde, a graduate of Trinity College and the first president of Ireland. The Gallery was co-founded by the Arts Council and Trinity College Dublin. It opened to the public in March 1978 as the first publicly-funded gallery dedicated to contemporary art and the first university gallery in Ireland. When the Gallery opened in 1978, it was for a number of years Ireland's only public gallery of contemporary art. In 2017 Georgina Jackson was appointed director, taking over from John Hutchinson who was director for 25 years. The Douglas Hyde Gallery consists of two exhibition spaces that are used to show concurrent exhibitions, which often have a relating theme or tone.
