It aims to enrich the Irish ecosystem with much-needed new voices and curatorial approaches, facilitate much-deserved opportunities, and invigorate the Irish photography scene.

New Irish Works is a unique artist support programme for Irish and Ireland-based artists at any stage of their careers, comprising public-facing activities such as the New Irish Works exhibition, as well as a growing range of behind-the-scenes professional development opportunities tailored to lens-based practitioners. Artists are selected by a jury composed of national and international experts representing a diversity of art fields and specialisations, and they benefit from the programme over the 3-year duration.
