A solo exhibition by acclaimed Irish artist Eamon O’Kane. On view from February 5th to April 4th 2026, the exhibition features new paintings from O’Kane’s ongoing Ideal Collection series alongside works created in response to residencies and visits at iconic studios and homes of major artists and architects, including Per Kirkeby’s studio on the Danish island of Læsø, Edvard Munch’s Ekely in Oslo, Claude Monet’s gardens at Giverny, Eileen Gray’s E-1027, Francis Bacon’s Reece Mews studio, and the Goulding House by Scott Tallon Walker.
In Studio Museum, O’Kane continues his exploration of creative spaces as living archives—repositories not only of artistic production but also of memory, legacy, and myth. Drawing on his distinctive blend of Modernist aesthetics, architectural precision, and painterly intuition, O’Kane reconstructs and reimagines these legendary sites as spaces of both reflection and invention. Each work acts as a portal into the environments that shaped some of the most influential figures of modern and contemporary art and design.
Eamon O’Kane is Professor of Visual Art at the Art Academy in Bergen and was a guest professor in charge of the MFA in painting (2024-2025) at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen. His work has been widely exhibited throughout Europe and North America and is held in numerous public and private collections. Studio, House, Museum is his first solo exhibition at Hillsboro Fine Art, Dublin.
