It focuses on identity of local places for individuals and societies, and the role that artist-led initiatives have in altering this identity. Keywords: Artist-led space, transience, place, identity, urban development Introduction Artist-run spaces fit all kinds of models…They are little pockets of activity that serve particular audiences at particular times, filling gaps and holes for all that the art-world fails to provide.

  • Isabel Nolan ISABEL NOLAN B.1974, Dublin, Ireland
    Kerlin Gallery Anne’s Lane, South Anne Street, Dublin 2, Ireland T +3531 670 9093 F +3531 670 9096 [email protected] www.kerlin.ie Isabel Nolan ISABEL NOLAN b.1974, Dublin, Ireland. Isabel Nolan’s new pain5ngs are erup5ng, colourful landscapes, dissolved urban spaces or scenes that try to paint an impossible cosmic perspec5ve into existence. They paint disorder and collapse into something beau5ful but not cogent or explicable. Nolan has described the impetus to make them as a paradoxical desire to imagine how the world might look when humans are not around. Nolan’s work consistently picks away at the blun5ng coherence of our human perspec5ve as applied to the wildness and strangeness of nature. ‘View (with eyes closed)’ feels both in5mate and cosmic, a landscape of colliding, looped forms and forces, a world or worlds simultaneously coalescing and disintegra5ng. Exploring fundamental tensions that operate in pain5ng – figura5on meets abstrac5on - the making of these works is in itself a metaphor for the ways we try to mould or force the world into being meaningful. Solo exhibi7ons include: Ein Fuß in der Welt / One Foot in the World, Kunstverein Langenhagen, Germany (2018); Another View from Nowhen, London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE, UK (2017–18); Curling up with reality, Grazer Kunstverein, Austria (2017–2018); Calling on Gravity, Douglas Hyde Gallery, Dublin, Ireland (2017); The weakened eye of day, Mercer Union, Toronto and CAG, Vancouver (both Canada, 2016) and Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin, Ireland (2014), Group shows include: The air between things, two-person exhibi7on with Stephen McKenna, OCT Boxes Art Museum, Shunde, China (2019) and the 51st Venice Biennale represen7ng Ireland as part of a group exhibi7on (2005).
