Very Special Exhibition in LSAD Church Gallery

The Plane Invasion is an exhibition of monumental endeavours, showcasing the work of sixty different creative practitioners. One linking element between each member of the ‘Plane Invaders’ is that each person has in some way been inspired or touched by the work, life and friendship of the late artist Orlagh Spain.
In August 2012 Orlagh Spain, a Limerick-based artist from Tullamore, died too soon. Having graduated with first class honours from LSAD in Printmaking in June 2010 Orlagh’s first and final show was Anchorage; the Limerick Printmakers Studio and Gallery in 2011.
Orlagh excelled during her time at Limerick School of Art and Design and we are delighted that L.S.A.D will host the exhibition which will include many of its current students and staff along with many alumni. The exhibition will be opened by Anne Culhane, Librarian, L.S.A.D. and Des MacMahon Course Leader Printmaking and Contemporary Practice, L.S.A.D, on Wednesday the 8th of April at 18.00. They exhibition will be open to the public from Thursday 9 April – Wednesday 22 April, 10.00-17.00.
Anne Culhane LSAD librarian is also exhibiting at the show, her creation of five artist books are both poignant and beautiful.
