Plates and Palettes: Louis Le Brocquy and Maura Laverty collaboration
Dublin City, Co. Dublin
21 November 2024
Join hosts Blanca Valencia and Santina Kennedy for Plates & Palettes, an immersive culinary experience in which we explore the collaboration between the iconic Irish artist Louis le Brocquy and the novelist, playwright and food writer, Maura Laverty.

Louis Le Brocquy was the first artist to be represented in the National Gallery of Ireland’s permanent collection during his lifetime. His sombre work, A Family, a modernist painting with cubist influences, will be juxtaposed with earlier works illustrating Maura Laverty’s 1946 Cookery Book.

Maura Laverty was a multi-hyphenate: a controversial novelist and playwright, she is credited with penning Ireland’s first TV drama Tolka Road. She was also a prolific food writer and radio show hostesses.

Join us for this unforgettable dining experience where culture and cuisine are linked through Irish art.

Note: The menu is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians.
