Rua Red’s annual open call is an opportunity for graduates, emerging and established artists living on the island of Ireland to submit their work to be shown as part of a group exhibition.
They welcome submissions across all art forms that respond to the theme—Red, as a colour and a concept.
“Red is a warning. It is also the colour of love, warmth, desire and energy.
It is the colour of blood, heat, fire, intense passion and beauty.
Red can signal danger, mark a boundary, demand attention or call us to action.”
Works do not need to use the colour red.
Exhibition Dates: 11th of December 2026—6th of February 2027
Submission deadline: 26th of October 2026, 5 PM
Where: Rua Red, South Dublin Arts Centre, Tallaght, Dublin, D24 KV8N
