Christ the King Exhibition

dlr LexIcon, Level 5, 1 June- 20 August

The Christ the King sculpture by Andrew O’Connor, situated at dlr LexIcon was the subject of an important case study by Archive students at UCD’s School of History in collaboration with the UCD Digital Library. Working with an archive of material donated in June 2015 by the Kenny family who were involved with the initial preservation and erection of the sculpture in Dún Laoghaire, this exhibition provides hitherto unseen background information and context regarding this iconic artwork.
