Luke Kelly on South King Street

I also had a quick look at the statue of Luke Kelly by John Coll erected on South King Street. Lovely pose and detail. 

Classy.

Visiting the RHA

Yesterday, I visited the RHA, 15 Ely Place, Dublin 2 to see the 188th RHA Annual Exhibition on its last day. It was my second time attending this show and was worth the effort. I enjoyed viewing work by familiar artists such as Ken Drew, Richard Gorman, Eithne Jordan, Alice Maher, Mick O’Dea, John Shinners and Donald Teskey along with some new names. Classy.

Guggi at the Kerlin

Last Thurs 12th Dec, I attended the opening of Guggi's exhibition 'Broken' at the Kerlin Gallery. The gallery was packed but I managed to see as all of Guggi's work which was worth the effort. There were lots of nice people to meet in a relaxed atmosphere. I had a wonderful night and even met Guggi. His exhibition will continue at the Kerlin Gallery, Anne's Lane, Sth Anne's St., Dub 2 D02 A028 until 17th Jan 2020.

Classy.

Kathy Tynan at Kevin Kavanagh

Tonight, I attended the opening of Kathy Tynan's exhibition 'Meantime' at the Kevin Kavanagh Gallery, Chancery Lane, Dublin 8. The event was well attended with a lively noisy atmosphere. Plenty of chatter indoors and out.

Many of Kathy's paintings have a flattened perspective like that of Henri Matisse. There were some lovely scenes like that of two geese in a painting called 'Almost Over a Year. My favorite painting was 'In the Blue Behind Eyes' which just featured a figure and shadow on a swirling background.

Kathy's exhibition will continue until 9th Sept 2024.

Eyeballs. 👀

Margo Banks at Solomon Fine Art

I've just attended the opening of Margo Banks' exhibition at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2 called 'Crow Voice, Fox Voice....Wolf Voice'. Margo has a lovely way of painting animals and all her paintings were full of life. Her opening was well attended. The poet, Jessica Traynor read a poem and Daniel Soro, the guitarist played some live music. Margo's exhibition will run until 22nd July 2023.

Jim Turner at Zozimus

Last night, I attended the opening of Jim Turner’s ‘Introspective Retrospective’ at Gallery Zozimus. The place was packed with people who knew Jim. As few sales were made. I particularly loved Jim’s vessels with their subtle use of colour and simplicity of form. Jim’s wonderful exhibition will continue until 30th Sept 2018 at Gallery Zozimus, 56 Frances Street, Dublin 8. Classy.
