Come Fly With Me: Aviation, Tourism and Irish Design

Our current exhibition at the National Print Museum, Come Fly With Me: Aviation, Tourism and Irish Design, uses flight as a central thread to explore how design and print helped promote Irish modernisation and position Ireland internationally. With the arrival of a number of Dutch graphic designers to Ireland in the 1950s to work on advertising for Aer Lingus, depictions of Ireland and Irishness were forever changed, as was Ireland’s relationship to Continental Europe and the US. Their design work was recognised internationally and had a huge impact on Irish design and economic development.
