Irish Art Scene

The Douglas Hyde Gallery June 10 to 13 July 2011 Mairead O'hEocha paints small landscapes that are both graceful and intelligent. Low-keyed pictures, coloured predominantly in elegant shades of grey, green, and blue, they are rooted in a painterly tradition of modest and sensitive observation that includes artists as various as Corot, Morandi, and Maureen Gallace. Nevertheless, in their quiet way, Mairead O'hEocha's images are unmistakably contemporary and individual. More ofte n than not they depict Irish edgelands, those curious but unremarkable places where cities and towns merge with the natural landscape. And as the Irish countryside, in recent years, has become more and more developed, so there are increasingly frequent instances of incongruent juxtapositions between the rural vernacular and styles of modern urban life.

The myths that surrounded them in their lifetime arose not only from their significant body of work, but also from their active participation in the life of their time, their friendships (and conflicts) with leading figures, their imposing physical appearance and spirited natures.  " Self Portrait with Monkeys" Price: €3.00 - 5.00

We are going to provide an up to date listings on everything to do with the Irish Art Scene. There is a lot of talented artists out there that because of the cost of putting on a show is too much, plus what we have found that there is too many galleries that are unknown to most people hence are losing business and visitors because there is not much advertisements to attract people. Please feel free to add anything that we have missed on here as I'm doing this in my spare time because after finishing Art college I found it impossible to know what is the next step.
