OH! HENRY ON VIEW If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Paul Henry (1875-1958) is in a class of his own. Much

copied and often underestimated, he remains one of the icons of Irish art. The largest ever exhi

bition of the renowned landscape painter's work will be one of the highlights of this year's National

Gallery Millennium Wing programme. This will comprise over 100 oils and works on paper?many on public view for the first time. Gallery director Raymond Keaveney says these works have been

drawn from its own collection as well as public/private collections in Ireland, the UK, Europe and

the US. 'Paul Henry was to Irish landscape painting what WB Yeats was for the Celtic Revival in

the shaping of Irish culture and this exhibition provides a new generation with a retrospective of

his work.' Paul Henry February-May 18

TIME MARCHES ON Hats off to all concerned for the fine achievement of converting the former Collins Barracks for

use by the National Museum of Ireland. The National Museum of Decorative Arts & History at

Collins Barracks was fittingly granted the premier award for conservation from the Royal Institute

of the Architects of Ireland last November. Collins (formerly the Royal) Barracks lays claim to

being the first purpose-designed military barracks in Europe. It was, furthermore, the oldest to

remain in continuous occupation until evacuated by the army to make way for the new museum

A lecture series focusing on aspects of the history of Collins Barracks promises to provide fasci

nating insights into its colourful past from the 18th century to the present day. An eminent list of

speakers will participate including Professor Thomas Bartlett, Department of History, UCD, Patrick

Cooney, Office of Public Works, and Tony Kinsella, Dublin Institute of Technology.

Evening lectures at Collins Barracks until 11 March

FELIM EGAN COMES HOME Internationally acclaimed UNESCO prizewinner Felim Egan is returning to his home ground for

his first ever solo exhibition in Donegal at Cavanacor Gallery. This is an especially welcome home

coming as the artist now exhibits all over the world

in venues such as the Stedelijk Museum,

Amsterdam, and Rosenberg and Kaufman, New

York. For the Donegal show, Felim will be exhibiting an extensive selection of semi-abstract paintings on

canvas and paper. These sensitive works merge

colour with linear elements and geometric shapes

inspired by the intricacies and movement of both

contemporary and classical music.

Felim Egan: 22 March-10 May

DILLON RETROSPECTIVE The Droichead Arts Centre in Drogheda is currently

paying tribute to one of Ireland's most creative

artists, Gerard Dillon. The show subsequently moves

to The Linen Hall Library and the Art Tank Gallery in Belfast. Born in Lower Clonard St off the Falls

Road in Belfast, Gerard was the youngest of eight children. In 1934 he obtained a job decorating to

support himself as an artist by night. At the end of World War II, he returned to his native coun

try where he discovered an equivalent to the dream country of his imagination in the people and

landscapes of Connemara/Aran Islands. The experience influenced his artistic output from then on. He travelled back to London in 1945 where he remained for the next twenty years. During this time, the celebrated artist regularly exhibited in Dublin and figured in several international

Felim Egan at the

Cavanacor Gallery, Donegal

exhibitions around the world.

While on a visit to Dublin, he

suffered a stroke and died later

that year at the Adelaide

Hospital. The Droichead's ret

rospective exhibition brings

together a large selection of the

artist's work for only the sec

ond time in over thirty years

(the Ulster Museum in partner

ship with the Hugh Lane

Gallery staged a major show

the year after his death).

Gerard Dillon:

until 20 February in Drogheda-, until 21 March in Belfast

Centre, Drogheda; Linen Hall Gallery and the Art Tank

Gallery, Belfast.

SPANISH HONOUR FOR GEORGE CAMPBELL Still Life with old Pump, Palo?

a painting featured in the

George Campbell exhibition at

Jorgensen Fine Art?takes on

an added significance in the

light of the recent decision by the people of Malaga to hon

our the Irish artist by naming a

street after him. The village of

el Palo was long his summer

home and inspiration. The

artist's long attachment to

Spain was formally recognised

by the Spanish Government in

1978 when he was made a

Commander with the Insignia and Privileges of the Order of

the M?rito Civile?the equiva

lent of a knighthood. Further

evidence of his devotion to the

country was the establishment

in 1980 (the year following his

death) of the George Campbell Travel Award by the Spanish Cultural Institute in Dublin and

the Arts Councils of the

Republic and Northern

Ireland. The Jorgensen show

illustrates the Hispano Hibernian symbiosis always evident in this celebrated

artist's work.

George Campbell: from 11 March.

FILMING WORDSONG The Hugh Lane Gallery in

Dublin is hosting an exhibition

of work by Irish artist Laura

Gannon in the coming weeks.

As part of the gallery's com

mitment to providing a plat form for Irish contemporary

practice, Laura will present her first museum exhibition

Wordsong?-four projected 16mm films. The exhibition is

a revealing examination of

personal intimate relationships and an exploration of the use

of language. Integral to the

experience is the use of sound

composed specifically for the

work by Ronan Coleman. In

creating a full soundscape

using the human voice along side the visual concepts, the

aim is 'to explore the univer

sal condition of existing

through complete immersion

of the viewer.' A graduate of

the University of Ulster, Gannon completed

'Underswim,' a dramatic short

film commissioned by Sligo

County Council in 1999. She

was one of 23 artists selected

for East International UK in

July 2001 and is currently

completing a Masters in Fine

Art at Goldsmith's College. Laura Gannon.- 5-28 May

PROVOCATION AT IMMA IMMA showcases the first solo exhibition in this country of Lorna Simpson, considered one of the lorna Simpson

principal representatives of black American visual culture. This New York born artist is known for ATIMMA

her provocative photographic works addressing racial and sexual identity, notions of the body,

interpersonal communication and relationships. Lorna Simpson: 27 February-8 June

PLEASANT PLACES David King has taken 'Pleasant Places'?a series of prints made

in the Netherlands around the 16th Century?as his starting point for his first major solo show in the Hallward Gallery, Merrion

Square, Dublin. The prints are very traditional images from the

early days of landscape realism. David takes his cue from them

by deftly playing between authentic representation of the original

image and the tangible, tactile qualities of the painted surface. He

was awarded the Hennessy Craig Scholarship, the inaugural prize for young artists up to 35 years, at the RHA Annual Exhibition (see

Irish Arts Review, Autumn 2002), and intends to use the prize to study and travel on the continent

in the year ahead. David King: 16 March-3 April

ALTERNATIVE ALCHEMIST Aidan McDermott is a painter of versatility and inventiveness. He fabricates miniature

fictional pieces, which he lights dramatically and photographs. Exaggerating anomalies

and distortions both in the model and pho

tograph, this process enables him to gener ate imagery conceptually and technically

challenging his practise as a painter. For 'In

the Garden' at the Rubicon Gallery on

Dublin's Stephens Green, McDermott cre

ates maquettes amalgamating miniature

mythological characters with objects of con

temporary kitsch, fairy tale figures with psy chedelic gardens of giant plastic flowers and

eerily lit scenarios where fantasy is made

flesh. Aidan McDermott: 18 March-12 April

PAINTING AND SKETCHING CLUB One of the largest group art

exhibitions is being staged in

early spring. The 125th

annual Dublin Painting &

Sketching Club will be on

view for two weeks in Dun

Laoghaire County Hall. With

over 170 exhibits, the

exhibition offers a variety of

styles and subjects running the full painting gamut. Over

60 contemporary artists from

all over Ireland, members of

the club and some invited

artists, will be exhibiting. Founded in 1874 as a

sketching club 'on the plan of the London Artists clubs', the club's membership

currently includes several

well-known contemporary artists including James

English, Des Hickey, Padraig

Lynch and Tom Ryan. Dublin Painting & Sketching Club: 31 March - 13 April

STUDY FOR SWALLOW ROOM A Dylan Thomas poem,

peeping through a crack

in childhood memory, an

abandoned attic of

thronged swallows?John

Shinnors draws these

diverse threads together for his new show 'Study for Swallow Room' in the

Vangard Gallery, Cork.

The artist relates his expe rience in a ruined room

aflight with trapped swallows in a major new triptych study (the centrepiece of the forthcoming show). Eleven small box-framed linen canvases, lyrical painterly interpretations of drawings, which

will hang simultaneously at The Crawford Municipal Art Gallery, complete the composition. John Shinnors: 13 February

BANK ON THIS ARTIST 'You Have Exceeded Your Limit!' is the arresting title

of the next exhibition by Kevin Sharkey at the Bank

of Ireland. Arts Centre, Foster Place, Dublin in

March. This artist's star has risen apace and the

price tag on his works has increased steadily over

the last few years with collectors and dealers to the

fore. The list of collectors of his work reads like a ver

itable Who's Who of the rich, famous and influen

tial?including names like Charles Saatchi, Bob Geldof, Sinead O'Connor, Sir Ned Sherrin, and

others. Kevin Sharkey: Bank of Ireland Arts Centre, 24 February

- 14 March. Art Ireland (Summer

Exhibition), RDS, 9-11 May

Centre

SNAPSHOTS IN SLIGO Two new exhibitions open at the Model Arts and Niland

Gallery in Sligo. An exhibition of photography will fea

ture the work of Dara McGrath, Mary Mclntyre, Liam

O'Callaghan and Jim Vaughan. A separate show will

feature drawings by Mark Clare. Border areas where

urban and rural intersect will provide common ground at the McGrath/Mclntyre exhibitions, while O'Callaghan focuses on images referencing microscopic life and

abstract art. The latter artist recently collaborated on a

book documenting the holy wells of Ireland. Vaughan will show images from his series 'Local News', concen

trating on everyday images in a highly personal mode.

His exhibition comprises works on paper, concisely ele

gant drawings offering myriad interpretations.

WEST COAST FLAVOUR Three artists who live and work near the

West Cork coastline will be on show

shortly at the West Cork Arts Centre (in

association with Cunnamore Galleries).

While the work of each of these artists is

mature and distinct, their output is

linked by the power and freshness of the

local landscape. Ian Humphreys spends time not only observing from the shore

but also travelling in boats recording

images and impressions in small painted studies. The current work of Majella O'Neill Collins likewise deals directly and spontaneously with the sea?focusing upon its power to

reinforce, challenge and change emotions. John Simpson is concerned with the geometry and pro

portions of the elements surrounding him; many of his recent paintings achieve a remarkable sense

of depth, giving great distance to offshore outlooks. 4 April - 3 May

f TRAVELLING RETROSPECTIVE Cork's Crawford Municipal Art Gallery is the inaugural venue for a Pat Moran retrospective. The touring exhibit

debuts there before travelling to two other Irish venues.

The exhibition of prints and paintings will be the first col

lective display of his work since his death ten years ago.

at Monaghan County

Museum

MYTHS AT MONAGHAN ^_ Monaghan County Museum continues to make its mark on

^^^^k the arts map by hosting two versatile talents. Craigavon- ^^^^^A based Catriona Shatwell will showcase Celtic glass depict- ^^^^^H ing many scenes and mythical characters from the Ulster

^^^^^^H cycle of tales such as Macha, Cuchullain and others.

^^^^^^H Caitriona derives inspiration from travels to archaeological ^^^^^^H sites. She has travelled extensively around Irish history sites

^^^^^^H and recreates her cultural insights onto glass. Her art is

^^^^^^H backed up with studies of textile design at

^^^^^^H Portadown Technical College. Using

_______J______B she creates three ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^m^^ them to tapes- ^^^^^H^^^^^|^^^^^^^^H try on glass. Also en route to Monaghan is Roger Cummiskey

who distributes his time evenly between Dublin and Spain. He specialises in watercolours, taking themes from the writ

ings of James Joyce, Samuel Beckett and other literary/his torical personalities. His latest exhibition is titled 'A Stroll

Thro' Ulysses' and springs from a lifelong interest in inter

preting Joyce visually. Catriona Shatwell: 3-25 April; Roger

Cummiskey: 8-30 May

OUT OF THIS WORLD! Kilkenny-based Marie Foley takes centre stage in the

Fenton Gallery, Cork during April. Her sculptural work 'has

the power of sacred objects' and her drawings are finely rendered. Marie's work is represented in most, if not

indeed all, Irish public collections. Not surprising really, to

judge by the following tribute lavished upon her work by Paula Meehan: 'She can make porcelain feel as thin as

skin, as thick as skin. She is an anthropologist of the sub

lime. Were I asked to nominate something human-made

to send, say, on a space mission to find other intelligent

Marie Foley at the

Fenton Gallery

beings in the cosmos, I'd

choose something of hers. It would

certainly show "them" the best of what we can be.'

What more could one ask? Marie Foley 5-25 April

EMERGING TALENTS Emerging young artists Miriam McConnon and Marty Kelly take

the floor at ArtSelect in Dublin's Temple Bar at the end of April. Miriam subscribes to a quiet spirituality in her work which gives her paintings a meditative and serene quality. Her paintings fea

ture dramatic blends of light, colour and form, with architectural

references as well as suggestions and abstracts of the human

form. She completed her degree with NCAD in 1999 and studied

at the Cyprus College of Art. Marty has a BA Honours in Fine Art

from the University of Ulster. Her work is abstract in form with a

warmth and earthiness of colour and texture that draws the

observer into the situations depicted. Miriam McConnon and

FEILE IN TEMPLE BAR The forthcoming 'Feile' exhibition at the National Photographic'Archive in Dublin's Temple Bar

coincides with St Patrick's Day. It will include material from the archive depicting images of cele

brations and festivals in Irish life over the past century, including St Patrick's Day parades in

general market days, weddings and feiseanna. Feile: until end May

SOLO SHOW IN OMAGH Michael Smyth one of Ireland's emerging artists will stage a solo-show

at Gormley's Fine Art, Omagh. The award-winning artist has been influ

enced by his friend and fellow artist Basil Blackshaw. The forthcoming event thus sounds full of promise. However, as the promoters have not

elaborated on what precisely will be showcased ('Michael's aim is to cap ture the essence of the subject matter'), we will just have to wait and see.

Michael Smyth: 24 May

TWICE AS GOOD Although little more than two years since the concept of a European-style annual art fair was first introduced here, Art Ireland has been so suc

cessful that founder and organiser Maria McMenamin has decided to

make it a twice-yearly event. Theinaugural Art Ireland Summer Exhibition

in the Main Hall of the RDS will run from 9-11 May. The event has

attracted its fair share of celebrity buyers, including Norma Smurfit, Dermot Desmond and Michael Flatley, but it has also proven to be a boon for the artistic commu

nity, as last year's fair set new records in terms of visitor numbers and sales by participating artists.

Art Ireland Summer 2003 will feature close to 90 galleries and independent artists such as Sandra

Bell, Kevin Sharkey, Liam O'Neill, Terry Bradley and Willie Redmond. Art Ireland 9-11 May

CALLING ALL PATRONS OF THE ARTS The Allianz Business2Arts Awards 2003 ?s calling on companies and arts organisations to put forward their nominations for best business sponsorship of the arts. Now in its 12th year, the

Awards have been tremendously successful in motivating sponsorship of the arts by Irish busi

ness?to the tune of approximately 34 million a year,

apparently. Seven awards will be presented to businesses

for their sponsorship of the arts, and a cash award of

4,000 will be presented to an arts organisation for the

most effective and imaginative use of business sponsorship. The closing date for nominations for the Allianz

rBusiness2Arts Awards 2003 is 21 March 2003.
