Artwork by Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol and Damien Hirst will go on display at a free event at one of Ireland’s top luxury hotels.

Works worth eight million euro will go on display at the Art and Soul event at the K Club in Co Kildare this weekend.

The free event, hosted by Gormleys, will include an outdoor exhibition of over 90 sculptures and installations set throughout the 550-acre grounds of the estate.

With more than 300 works on display, Art and Soul will be the largest showcase of sculpture in Ireland to date, featuring international artists alongside leading Irish sculptors Patrick O’Reilly, Ian Pollock, Eamonn Ceannt and Bob Quinn.

The hotel’s interior will be further embellished with a display of more than 100 artworks by some of the world’s best-known artists, including Giacinto Bosco, Patrick Rubinstein, Banksy, Keith Haring, and Julian Opie.

Oliver Gormley said the event will give art lovers a unique opportunity to “view these incredible works of art in the beautiful surroundings” of The K Club.

He said: “Adults and children will enjoy the event equally, and our previous events in Russborough, Co Wicklow, Castlemartyr resort in Cork and The Culloden Hotel in Belfast attracted over 10,000 visitors.”

During the event, there will be a programme of artists’ talks and daily guided tours.

Paul Heery, general manager at The K Club, said the hotel was honoured to host the artwork and is offering special rates for those who quote Art and Soul when booking stays for the duration of the event.

He said: “The K Club has long been linked to history’s trailblazers so it feels very fitting that this historic hotel should now be host to such an incredible array of stunning works from some of the world’s most talented artists and sculptors.”
