Everyone Should Have a Home: Irish Housing Crisis Explored at Centre Culturel Irlandais

The Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris presents 'Everyone should have a home, visages de la survie', an exhibition addressing Ireland's chronic housing crisis and its political implications. Running from September 18 to October 28, 2026, the show features around ten artists whose works span sculptures, films, and photographs. The exhibition highlights the precariousness of housing in Ireland, where dilapidated and poorly built homes are common, and the crisis has fueled a nascent far-right movement. Artworks include embroidered doormats with messages, cheese cultivated from wall mold, and a nod to Jonathan Swift's 'A Modest Proposal'. The exhibition also presents inventive, more humane housing solutions that respect people, usage, and the environment, offering hope for alternative ways of inhabiting. The venue is located at 5 rue des Irlandais, 75005 Paris, near Cardinal Lemoine metro, open daily from 2 PM to 6 PM, and until 8 PM on Wednesdays, with free entry.
