Upcoming: Leaning on the Line, an exhibition of original prints by artists that use line as an essential element in their work.
Whilst the term Line is frequently used in reference to print making, the curators of this exhibition (Peter Brennan, Graphic Studio Gallery, and Catherine Daunt, British Museum) were after something else.
‘Leaning on the Line focuses on the rhythmic, pattern-based qualities of line as a compelling component in the selected compositions.’ – Peter Brennan
The exhibition, at Graphic Studio Gallery, is selected from studio members of
@printnetworkireland , which comprises Ireland’s largest print studios:
@corkprintmakers @limerickprintmakers @blackchurchprint @graphicstudiodublin
‘The exhibition showcases the work of around thirty artists who lean on the line in a variety of ways, from using dominant lines to achieve definition, modelling and texture in a figurative work, to creating abstract compositions underpinned by the grid or a series of parallel lines.’ – Catherine Daunt
Leaning on the Line features work by: Anita Geaney, Ann Kavanagh, Cecilia D’Alessandro, Clodagh Twomey, Conor Gallagher, Derval Carroll, Dominic Fee, Dylan Buckley, Eileen Kennedy, Feargal Cunningham, Grainne Cuffe, Helen O’Sullivan, John Graham, Kate MacDonagh, Ludmilla Kalinka, Marie-Louise Martin, Mary O’Connor, Matthew Gammon, Melissa Ellis, Monika Crowley, Niamh Flanagan, Nick Boon, Paula Fitzpatrick, Rachel Merrigan, Shane O’Driscoll, Sharon Lee, Sinead McGuinness, Sophia O’Sullivan, Yoko Akino, Tomasz Knapik.
