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.

Sheltered Charity at the Copper House

This evening, I saw the exhibition Sheltered Charity Through The Arrs held at the Copper House Gallery, St. Kevin’s Cottages, off Symge St., Dub 8. A wide variety of work to view in a nice atmosphere with good music. The exhibition is in support of the Peter Mc Verry Trust and will continue tomorrow from 11.00 am - 5.30 pm.

Classy.

Dermot Seymour at Kevin Kavanagh

Tonight, I attended the opening of Dermot Seymour's 'The Nine Primates of Ulster' at the Kevin Kavanagh Gallery, Chancery Lane, Dublin 8. The event began with Dermot conversing with Martin Mackin before answering questions from an audience about his work. Afterwards, the atmosphere was relaxed with plenty of chat.

Each of Dermot's paintings featured the portrait of a different species of money or ape. He did not specify any of these species in the titles of his paintings. The faces and eyes of these animals were painted in sharp expressive detail while their shoulders and background appeared more blurred and abstract. I liked 'Primate of Cavan' and 'Primate of Monaghan' due to their compositions. Dermot's show will run until 12th Oct 2024.

Gallery Zozimus

Last Thursday, I attended the opening of Ostinelli and Priest’s exhibition ‘Animal Magic’ at Gallery Zozimus, 56 Francis Street, Dublin 8. I liked their more minimalist pieces like ‘Class Act’, ‘Charlotte Grey’ and ‘Rhino’. These pieces represent a greyhound, horse and rhino respectively. Their exhibition runs until 31st May. Classy.

Egan At The Solomon

I attended the opening of Margaret Egan's exhibition and the launching of her book at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2 next to the Westbury Hotel. Her exhibition called 'The Mythic Stories of Life and Landscape' will continue until 30th March 2024. The Venue was packed and had a lively atmosphere. Her paintings painted on acrylic on linen were atmospheric. I particularly liked the paintings which included figures like 'The Poignant Music of Life' or 'The Landscape of our Inner World'.

John Paul at the Ireland Institute

I also attended the opening of John Paul's exhibition 'The Characters of Dublin' at the Ireland Institute. Many of the paintings featured statues situated around Dublin including the depiction of Phil Lynott on Harry Street. However I loved the faces of the portraits of real people. They were so full of life. John Paul had finished one painting the previous day which featured the Shelbourne Hotel. The paint was still drying on this painting. John Paul's exhibition will run until next Wed 4th March 2020 at the Ireland Institute, 27 Pearse Street, Dublin 2.

Classy.

Mick O'Dea at Molesworth

Last night, I attended the very popular opening of Mick O'Dea's exhibition 'What Is The Stars?' at the Molesworth Gallery, 16 Molesworth Street, Dublin 2. Mick's paintings were a nice size; not too large or small. There was a lovely sense of light and shadow in their compositions.

Each painting protrayed actors preparing to go on stage or undertaking dress rehearsals. The plays in question were Sean O'Casey's trilogy, 'The Plough and the Stars', The Shadow of a Gunman' and 'Juno and the Paycock' all performed at the Druid Theatre.

My favourite painting was called 'Direction' which featured a pub scene. It was full of life and drama that centered around a barman behind a counter. Mick's exhibition will run until 15th May 2024.
