The ‘new Irish’ part of the title also refers to the ideal of a less parochial and more fluid and multi-cultural Irish society that extends to our national identity. In a commercial context creating a local market for new or unfamiliar art can be a challenge given the largely traditional, conservative and tribal nature of the Irish art market but it is important that all good work is given a platform and that we encourage tastes to broaden locally and nationally. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a not-for-profit arts organisation and registered charity Cork Arts Society, trading as Lavit Gallery, greatly appreciates the support of our colleagues running sales-based galleries in Dublin. Included in this exhibition are artists represented by Solomon Fine Art, Taylor Galleries and Kevin Kavanagh Gallery. \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"albet-i-noya-lignum-blanc-2024","title":"Albet i Noya, Lignum blanc 2024","description":"\u003cblockquote\u003e‘A cool, clean wine with plump but fresh grapefruit and peach fruit, a lovely centre palate, and a slightly minerally dry finish.
