You may remember my little puzzle regarding images I picked up; well I also off-handedly mentioned Temple Bar Gallery. There was an exhibition there showing some fairly cutting-edge work from a variety of Irish, UK and continental artists with a distinctly Teutonic tone....it seemed to me:
Temple Bar also has studios for artists
From there I went to Graphic Studios where I saw their Winter Print show which was really impressive, but unfortunately could not get any pictures and the best I can do is to show their invite:
Once again, as in Copper House I was amazed at the range of material covered by the term 'Print'.
I should mention that one of the artists exhibiting was Suzannah O'Reilly ...of this parish.
The last visit I will cover was more local - LCGA - where there were two exhibtions:
These are in descending order, increasing magnifications of 'Octopus' 2012 and show this arists technique using squares of image. One is reminded somewhat of a latter-day Pointillist in more geometric mode.
The other show is cslled 'Into the Light : the Arts Council - 60 years of Supporting the Arts'
and has been runing throughout the country. For me it was a real trip to the past as I knew so many of thse pictures from their first airing (As Paul Simon would say .... 'Old' ):
Wonderful!
