Lucian Freud


Irish Museum of Modern Art


In the first year all 50 works will be on display in Dublin, while subsequent exhibitions will also include works and new commissions by other contemporary artists in response to Freud, revealing exciting new perspectives on his work for artists and audiences today. This publication represents the first step in this process, featuring responses from 31 Irish and International artists who were invited to respond to the open question of what Freud means to them today.
