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.
