An Grianan highlights

Culture Night

This is extracted from the Culture Night mail out from An Grianan, the show was also included in last weeks listings in the (Irish) Sunday Times (Culture magazine).

CULTURE NIGHT is back and we have one of the best lineups the country has to offer – Mikel Murfi and Little John Nee!   Exhibition launch: Paul Cairns We officially open our Paul Cairns exhibition on Culture Night and the artist himself will be there – come say hi. This is Paul’s first exhibition in Ireland since leaving the UK, where he had been based since 1996 (Bow Arts Trust and then Gatehouse Arts studios in Harlow Essex). He returned to Milford about a year ago to be closer to the mountains and environment that inspired most of his early work, to get a more direct response than can be worked up in his studio.     An Grianan Theatre Port Road Letterkenny, Donegal 1 Ireland

Date: Thursday 7 September 2017 – Saturday 14 October 2017

2015 Open Studios (04/05/10/15)

The studios are much expanded this year with lots of new faces and decent work. The overall numbers through the main doors were a little lower but not too dissimilar to the previous year but a few of the artists noted (including me) having less footfall through their studio. It is easier to miss a floor or corridor than before.

New painting inspired by a residency at DSME, Thames Ditton in 2010

I had some sketches of this turntable from a short residency I did back in 2010, working in the studios of Phillippa Edgerton. Anyway I wasn’t happy with the work I produced at the time so thought I’d have another go.

Trails, private view

A few of the 49 guests that showed up to the launch night.

The Trails show was nicely curated by Freya and Wellington, so my thanks to them. It was a respectable turn out on the night.

last minute touch up

Well, it wouldn’t be an exhibition if there wasn’t some last minute touch ups needed.

Balloons, being prepared by one of the other artists (Patricia McGuinness-center) and assistants.

I will post some more general shots of the exhibition soon.
