Power & Glory - A Showcase of Artwork by Two of Ireland's Most Outstanding Artists Eadaoin Harding Kemp & Tony O'Connor


2020 Art Gallery, Cork
presents
Power & Glory
a showcase of work by two of Ireland’s most outstanding artists,
Eadaoin Harding Kemp & Tony O’Connor
At Sheen Falls Lodge, Kenmare, Co Kerry
From April 1st – May 31st


Each of these artists captures an essence of Ireland in spectacular and enrapturing ways. Eadaoin’s rugged landscapes and fertile hedgerows encapsulate all that is mesmerising about the Irish terrain, and specifically the bountiful Co Kerry in the works in this collection while Kerry native Tony’s beautifully executed pieces communicate the unique spirit of the horse and the result of his inimitable combination of an innate aptitude for draughtsmanship and his lifelong passion for horses is beautifully evocative paintings that capture the power, grace and nobility of the equine form. Anyone who appreciates classical elegance cannot but be drawn in.

As one of the country’s best known artists Eadaoin has had over 24 solo shows in the course of her career at a variety of galleries. In addition to her inclusion in a number of national public collections such as O.P.W, AIB and UCC her paintings form part of many international private collections throughout Europe, Asia and USA.

Nowadays Tony is a full time artist creating ever more sought after pieces of equine art. His work forms part of many private national and international collections across Europe, USA & Canada  and he is proud to be connected with the Irish Horse Welfare Trust and Redwings Equine Charity in the UK. Most recently he has received the commission for the Irish Horse Thoroughbred Breeders Association awards and has also won two awards in the Ex Arte Equinus International Art Competition.
