In 1996 Pallas Studios was established to harness, engage and provoke the Irish independent art scene. Since its inception over eighty artists have benefited from the use of Pallas' space and facilities. Many of these artists are award winners and have produced work that has been exhibited widely in Ireland and abroad.
Pallas Studios was formed in Dublin's inner city as an artist led initiative run by a partnership of Mark Cullen and Brian Duggan. It now operates two studios in the city centre that provide for 21 artists and curates numerous exhibitions of contemporary art each year.

Pallas Studios represent its artists internationally through connections with independent and professional spaces in London, New York and Amsterdam. "There is an alternative art scene [in Ireland], exemplified by Pallas Studios. "
