It was worth the effort going. This exhibition called ‘Kilkenny Festival Portraits 2015 - 17′ will run until 30th June. Classy.

Michael Quane at Solomon Fine Art

Last night, I attended the opening of Michael Quane's exhibition 'Belonging' at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2 D02 T802. This event was packed. I had plenty of people to talk to. Michael had carved his sculptures in limestone and marble. His figurative pieces were full character and life. I loved his Nabresino Head Study carved from Nabresina- light limestone due to its simplicity and clean lines. To my eye, it appeared monumental and would suit being carved to a much larger scale. Other artworks that I liked included 'Taurus Bouyancy' and 'indigenous', both carved from Bordiglio marble, due to their smooth finish, rounded shapes and warm grey colour. I was fascinated to learn from Michael that some areas of a stone block are harder than others. One has to adapt to this variation of hardness in stone as one carves it. Michael's exhibition will run until 19th Oct 2024. It was well worth going.

Vera Klute at the Molesworth

I have attended the opening of 'Petals and Pulp', Vera's Klute's exhibition at the Molesworth Gallery, 16 Molesworth Street, Dublin 2. 🌳 Her paintings done in oil on linen or digital watercolour show woodland scenes, foulage and individual flowers. 🌻 I was impressed with the amount of detail that Vera had included in her paintings. A particular example is one of her larger paintings called 'Clearing' which features lots of fallen branches amongst trees. 🌲 I also loved 'Lustre', a painting of foliage due to its vibrant colours. 🏵 Vera has also included a couple of Jesmonite on concrete sculptures in her show. Her exhibition will run until 23rd Dec 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.

Jonathan Hunter at Hillsboro

Tonight, I attended the opening of Jonathan Hunter's exhibition at Hillsboro Fine Art, 49 Parnell Square West, Dublin 1 D01 A971. It was well attended. The atmosphere was quite relaxed. Jonathan's paintings were full of life and colour particularly the paintings that featured plants like 'Aleums', 'Vase' and 'Song of Colour'. His exhibition called 'The Listening Field' will run until 13th April 2024.
