  • Curated by Michael Dempsey Sara Reisman Introduction
    Curated by Michael Dempsey Sara Reisman Introduction SELECT AN ARTIST t Lieven De Boeck Elaine Byrne John Byrne Tony Cokes Chto Delat Dor Guez Lawrence Abu Hamdan Dragana Juriši´c Ari Marcopoulos Raqs Media Collective Dermot Seymour Mark Wallinger “In the year 2000 there was a total of fifteen fortified border walls and fences between sovereign nations. Today, physical barriers at sixty-three borders divide nations across four continents.” — Lawrence Abu Hamdan, 2018 Introduction Historically, borders tend to be the location of international trouble spots. Prior to the global lockdown, there was a utopian vision of open borders, alongside the reality of a populist push towards border fortification. This dichotomy has now been eclipsed by a pandemic that doesn’t respect borders. Politicisation of the pandemic, displacement of people, and contagion, as well as the drive towards an ever-increasing economic globalisation, have created further complex contradictions. The curatorial idea for the exhibition Worlds Without End (WWE) was first conceived a year ago as a research-based collaboration between Sara Reisman, Executive and Artistic Director of the Shelley & Donald Rubin Foundation, New York and Michael Dempsey, Head of Exhibitions, Hugh Lane Gallery, who are the co-curators of WWE. WWE is a visual dialogue on the impact of borders on individuals and communities. The twelve participating artists are drawn from different regional traditions and challenge our perceptions of national identities, envisioning utopian possibilities for understanding the place of borders, their proliferation and seeming obsolescence, in contemporary society. These artists reveal their deep interest in current geo-political positions and social conditions with works that interrogate power structures, positions of privilege and human rights issues.

  • The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain
    Crossing the Channel: The Challenges of French Impressionism in Great Britain By Catherine Cheney Senior Honors Thesis Department of Art History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 8, 2016 Approved: 1 Introduction: French Impressionism in England As Impressionism spread throughout Europe in the late nineteenth century, the movement took hold in the British art community and helped to change the fundamental ways in which people viewed and collected art. Impressionism made its debut in London in 1870 when Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Paul Durand-Ruel sought safe haven in London during the Franco- Prussian war. The two artists created works of London landscapes done in the new Impressionist style. Paul Durand-Ruel, a commercial dealer, marketed the Impressionist works of these two artists and of the other Impressionist artists that he brought over from Paris. The movement was officially organized for the First Impressionist Exhibition in 1874 in Paris, but the initial introduction in London laid the groundwork for promoting this new style throughout the international art world. This thesis will explore, first, the cultural transformations of London that allowed for the introduction of Impressionism as a new style in England; second, the now- famous Thames series that Monet created in the 1890s and notable exhibitions held in London during the time; and finally, the impact Impressionism had on private collectors and adding Impressionist works to the national collections. With the exception of Edouard Manet, who met with success at the Salon in Paris over the years and did not exhibit with the Impressionists, the modern artists were not received well.

  • Landscapes from Permanent Collection June
    LCGA Permanent Collection: Landscapes 29th June – 22nd October 2017 Featured artists: Eva Hamilton RHA; Letitia M Hamilton RHA; J. Humbert Craig RHA RUA; Charles Lamb RHA, RUA; Paul Henry RHA RUA; Seán Keating RHA; Maurice MacGonigal PRHA; Frank McKelvey RHA RUA; Walter Verling HRHA; Maurice C. Wilks ARHA RUA; Jack B. Yeats RHA; Old Thomond Bridge Unknown. Charles Lamb RHA, RUA (1893–1964): The Irish landscape artist, portrait and figure painter Charles Vincent Lamb was born in Portadown, Co. Armagh. and worked as a house painter before teaching art and painting professionally. He studied life-drawing in Belfast School of Art before winning a scholarship to the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art in 1917, where he came under the influence of Sean Keating. He began exhibiting at the Royal Hibernian Academy in 1919, and thereafter averaged about 4 paintings per show until his final years. In 1922 he went to Connemara, settling in a remote Irish-speaking part of County Galway, Carraroe. Lamb was one of a group of painters, including Sean Keating, Patrick Tuohy and Paul Henry, who found their inspiration in the West of Ireland, which was seen as the repository of true Irishness. In 1938 he was elected a full member of the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA). He continued painting actively right up until his death in 1964. Maurice MacGonigal PRHA (1900- 1979): The landscape and portrait artist MacGonigal was born in Dublin, becoming a design apprentice in his uncle's firm, Joshua Clark, ecclesiastical decorator and stained glass artist. MacGonigal mixed politics with art studies, managing within a few years to be interned at Ballykinlar Camp, take drawing and figure drawing classes at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art (now the National College of Art and Design) and win the Taylor Scholarship in painting.

  • The Life and Works of Beatrice Elvery, 1881-1920
    Nationalism, Motherhood, and Activism: The Life and Works of Beatrice Elvery, 1881-1920 Melissa S. Bowen A Thesis Submitted to the Department of History California State University Bakersfield In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History May 2015 Copyright By Melissa S. Bowen 2015 Acknowledgments I am incredibly grateful for the encouragement and support of Cal State Bakersfield’s History Department faculty, who as a group worked closely with me in preparing me for this fruitful endeavor. I am most grateful to my advisor, Cliona Murphy, whose positive enthusiasm, never- ending generosity, and infinite wisdom on Irish History made this project worthwhile and enjoyable. I would not have been able to put as much primary research into this project as I did without the generous scholarship awarded to me by Cal State Bakersfield’s GRASP office, which allowed me to travel to Ireland and study Beatrice Elvery’s work first hand. I am also grateful to the scholars and professionals who helped me with my research such as Dr. Stephanie Rains, Dr. Nicola Gordon Bowe, and Rector John Tanner. Lastly, my research would not nearly have been as extensive if it were not for my hosts while in Ireland, Brian Murphy, Miriam O’Brien, and Angela Lawlor, who all welcomed me into their homes, filled me with delicious Irish food, and guided me throughout the country during my entire trip.
