Art at the Falls: Sheen Falls Lodge, Kenmare

Following the success of last year’s exhibition, Gormleys is delighted to return to Sheen Falls Lodge this September with Art at the Falls — a curated exhibition of modern and contemporary art presented throughout the lodge and its grounds. Set against the cascading backdrop of the estate, and framed by river, woodland and mountain views, the exhibition invites guests to experience art immersed within one of Ireland’s most atmospheric landscapes.

Across the hotel interiors and grounds, the exhibition will feature works by acclaimed Irish and international artists, creating a seamless journey between indoor and outdoor spaces. Sculptural works are carefully sited throughout the landscape, offering moments of discovery along the riverbanks and within the lodge’s gardens.

A key highlight of the exhibition is a presentation of works by some of the most iconic artists in modern and contemporary art, including Andy Warhol, Banksy and Tracey Emin.

Art at the Falls opens officially from 3pm on Sunday 13th September.

The exhibition will run daily from 11am to 7pm until the 12th of October 2026.
