Tony O'Malley Exhibition at the Riverbank Arts Centre
An exhibition of some 35 paintings and gouaches by the distinguished =
Irish painter Tony O'Malley opens to the public at the Riverbank Arts =
Centre, Newbridge, Co Kildare on Friday 28 June 2002 as part of the =
National Programme at the Irish Museum of Modern Art. Holding on to =
the Outside focuses on O'Malley's formative period, from 1960 to 1980, =
when he lived in Cornwall and before he became a household name in Irish =
art circles. The works are chosen from a larger group of O'Malley =
paintings in the collection of George and Maura McClelland, who have =
generously lent these and other paintings, drawings and sculptures to =
IMMA on long-term loan. The exhibition will be opened by Catherine =
Marshall, Senior Curator of the Collection at IMMA, on Thursday 27 June =
at 8.00pm.
Nature and history form the basic themes in O'Malley's highly =
distinctive paintings. Working intuitively, he has, over 40 years, =
continued to record the moods, movement and bird song of the =
countryside, usually of Ireland but also of the warmer, more exotic =
islands where he spends the winter. His paintings, on everything from =
scraps of recycled paper and canvas to the discarded hoops of an old =
Guinness barrel, also celebrate the medieval and Gaelic associations of =
such places as Callan, Jerpoint, and Kells, Co Kilkenny, as well as his =
ancestral roots in Clare Island off the west coast of Co Mayo. The =
exhibition concentrates on that middle period of O'Malley's life, when =
his full-time career as an artist was only beginning. It was these works =
and others from that period that excited the interest of the McClellands =
and lead to the strategic promotion of O'Malley between 1980 and 1983, =
inspired by the view, still held by George McClelland today, that "Tony =
O'Malley is the Irish artist of the 20th century".=20
Tony O'Malley was born in Callan, Co Kilkenny, in 1913, where he =
returned in 1987 and now lives with his artist wife, Jane. Since 1983 =
Tony O'Malley has been recognised as one of the leading Irish painters =
of his time, with major exhibitions throughout Ireland and the United =
States. In 1999 he was the recipient of the Glen Dimplex Award for a =
Sustained Contribution to the Visual Arts in Ireland, he is a member of =
Aosd=E1na and was elected Saoi in 1993.
The National Programme, now in its sixth year, is designed to make the =
assets, skills and resources of the Museum available to centers outside =
Dublin. Through the lending of exhibitions and individual works, and =
the development of collaborative projects with other organisations, the =
National Programme establishes the Museum as inclusive, accessible and =
national. =20
Holding on to the Outside continues until Saturday 27 July 2002 at the =
Riverbank Arts Centre, Main Street, Newbridge, Co Kildare. Tel: 045 448 =
