John Adams, is best known for his contemporary expressionist paintings. Beauty and nature have been a constant priority. Landscapes, seascapes, portraits, political, social and now environmental paintings highlighting the struggles of animals to survive due to human over-population.
In every artwork Robert Ryan makes, a generic hybrid creature is central. Ryan’s work borrows qualities from European old masters, using traditional characteristics in a modern context. He attempts to explore allegorical concepts such as solitude, vulnerability, fragility, the infinity of space and time.
The exhibition runs from 16th July to 6th August Tuesday – Saturday 10am – 5pm in the Courtroom Gallery at Market House Craftworks, Cappoquin Co Waterford P51 KD37. Ph: 0872187962.
