Kerlin Gallery is a contemporary art gallery in Dublin, Ireland.
Established in Dublin in 1988, Kerlin Gallery has built its international reputation through the representation of leading contemporary artists both from Ireland and abroad. Its current display space, designed in 1994 by architect John Pawson, provides 3,600 square feet spread over two floors and is located in the heart of Dublin close to Grafton Street.
Over the last three decades, the gallery programme has reflected significant trends in international contemporary art with several memorable highlights in both the solo and group exhibitions including Martin Kippenberger and Albert Oehlen (1991), Andy Warhol (1993), Sean Scully (1994, 2004, 2007, 2011, 2015), and Hiroshi Sugimoto (1996, 2000).
In recent years, the gallery has produced significant solo shows with Liam Gillick, Willie Doherty, Siobhán Hapaska, Phil Collins (artist), David Godbold, Mark Francis (artist), Jaki Irvine, Elizabeth Magill, Sean Scully and Paul Winstanley amongst others.
Several gallery artists have been shortlisted for the Turner Prize including Phil Collins (2006), Willie Doherty (1994, 2003), Liam Gillick (2002), Callum Innes (1995), Stephen Mc Kenna (1986) and Sean Scully (1989, 1993). The gallery has also supported artists exhibiting at Venice Biennale since 1988 including Dorothy Cross, Willie Doherty, Liam Gillick, Siobhán Hapaska, Jaki Irvine, Merlin James, William McKeown, Isabel Nolan and Kathy Prendergast (winner of the Premio Nuovo Award 1995).
