  • Louis Le Brocquy Is a Self-Taught Artist Who Has Come to Be Louis Recognised Both at Home and Internationally As the Foremost Irish Painter of the 20Th Century
    stoney road press Born in Dublin in 1916, Louis le Brocquy is a self-taught artist who has come to be Louis recognised both at home and internationally as the foremost Irish painter of the 20th Century. Le Brocquy left Ireland in 1938 to study the major European art collections in le Brocquy London, Paris, Venice, Spain and Geneva. His return to Dublin signaled the advent of the Irish Exhibition of Living Art, which established an effective forum for contempo- rary art in Dublin in 1943. In 1946 le Brocquy moved to London and became prominent in the contempo- rary art scene. He began to exhibit internationally, winning a major prize at the Venice Biennale in 1956. In 1958, he was included in the historic exhibition Fifty Years of Mod- ern Art, at the Brussels World Fair. The same year he married the Irish painter Anne Madden and left London to work in the South of France. His work has received much international attention and many accolades in a career that spans seventy years of creative practice. Widely acclaimed for his evocative heads of literary figures and fellow artists, including W.B. Yeats, James Joyce and his friends Samuel Beckett, Francis Bacon, Seamus Heaney and Bono, Le Brocquy’s inqui- ry into the human condition is seminal to his motivation as a painter. Acknowledged by museum retrospective exhibitions worldwide, the artist’s work is represented in numerous public collections, from the Guggenheim, New York to the Tate, London. In Ireland he was elected Saoi of Aosdána in 1994 and is honoured as the first and only living painter to be included in the Permanent Irish Collection of the National Gallery.

  • World Literature
    world literature Peter Harrington london This catalogue celebrates the international conversation that is literature, and the creativity that can spark when writers and texts cross national, linguistic, and cultural borders. For his lifelong commitment to literary internationalism, Jorge Luis Borges is a key figure here. One of the star items is Borges’s own annotated copy of Dante (20). Another is a man- uscript of the only poem he composed in the English language (17). We also have a scarce signed set of his Biblioteca de Babel series (21), which brought the great short stories of world literature to a South American audience. Many other items connect notable authors across place and time: Dylan Thomas’s school- boy copy of Omar Khayyám (item 179), T. S. Eliot’s Rimbaud (61), and E. M. Forster’s Chek- hov (41), for example. Among international presentations, Umberto Eco’s Name of the Rose to García Márquez is a show-stopper (58), as is García Márquez inscribing One Hundred Years of Solitude to his English publisher (67). A compelling example of international readership is found in a first American edition of Moby Dick being read by a poet in Hawaii who correspond- We are exhibiting at these fairs: ed with Melville (127). Classical literature is fundamental to our global network of inspiration, and where else to begin but with the editio princeps of Homer, printed in Florence in 1488 (83)?

The first surrounded the public opening of Francis Bacon’s studio in Dublin, the city of the artist’s birth. Following a donation by Bacon’s sole heir, John Edwards, the entire studio was dismantled at its location at Reece Mews in London, transported, and painstakingly reconstructed at the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery of Modern Art (now Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane).

  • Louis Le Brocquy's Image of Bono (2003) Shane Mccausland
    "An archaeology of the spirit" – Louis le Brocquy’s Image of Bono (2003) Shane McCausland The subject of this painting is an Irish rock singer, who is also recognised all over the globe as a philanthropist and humanitarian activist against Third-World disease and poverty. He is known simply as Bono, a childhood nickname. Some people will be familiar with moving, sounding images of Bono on the television, whether speaking about debt relief or HIV/AIDS at global summits or singing in concert or on pop videos with his hugely successful group, U2. Some will recognise him from U2’s album covers. With Bono as its lead singer and lyric writer, U2 has made a deep mark in late modern social history and culture. The band has been releasing music since 1980 and sold more than 100 million albums, but has also lent its support to organizations such as Amnesty International, Greenpeace, and the Burma Action Campaign. Since the early days of U2, through the lyrics of songs, Bono has not been afraid to take on the establishment and cultivate a rebellious image. He confronted head-on issues including Northern Ireland’s ‘troubles’. Songs like ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’ called attention to such atrocities as the shooting dead of 13 unarmed civil rights marchers by British paratroopers in Derry on 30 January 1972. Famously, Bono repeatedly announced at concerts that this was ‘not a Rebel song’ (i.e., not an IRA [terrorist] song), suggesting its motives were strongly humanitarian rather than political or sectarian. But it is only more recently that Bono’s public image has broadened to encompass his role in advocacy, particularly with regard to debt relief and the treatment of HIV and AIDS in Africa, which has brought him attention and recognition as a humanitarian in his own right.

  • JELLETT Mainie
    The Trinity College Dublin Art Collections Artist: Mainie Jellett Title: Four Elements (sketch) (1928) Medium: gouache on paper Notes: exhibited: The College Gallery, The Ulster Museum, Belfast, 20 March – 17 April 1963, cat. no. 40 b.1897,Dublin d.1944, Dublin Jellett began studying art in 1914 with Drawing and Fine Art Painting at the Metropolitan School of Art, Dublin, and later under Walter Sickert at Westminster Technical Institute, London. She then went on to study in the studios of André l’Hôte and Albert Gleizes in Paris (1920-21). In addition to being an artist, she was an art writer, and an art teacher and lecturer in Dublin and Cork during the 1930s. Jellett is particularly important in the history of Irish art, along with Mary Swanzy and her close friend, Evie Hone, for being one of the earliest practitioners of abstraction in Ireland. In 1923 Jellett staged an exhibition of modern art at the Society of Dublin Painters. In spite of the critics’ horror at the show, later art critics acknowledge the importance of such a show in developing the link between Irish and European art. In addition to Irish exhibitions, Jellett showed her work in Paris, Versailles, Brussels, London and Amsterdam during the 1920s. She exhibited at the Royal Hibernian Academy from 1930-37, and with the Water Colour Society of Ireland from 1931-37. Jellett remained resilient against detractors, with this toughness perhaps stemming from her firm Christian beliefs. Even though a number of her works are abstract, they have religious titles and are similar to icon paintings in tone and palate.

  • Of Louis Le Brocquy
    The “Inscapes” of Louis le Brocquy Karen E. Brown For me, as perhaps for our Celtic and Gallic ancestors, the human head can be re- garded ambivalently as a box which holds the spirit prisoner, but which may also free it transparently within the face. Paradoxically, as we know, the face is at once a mask which hides the spirit and a revelation, an incarnation of this spirit. (le Brocquy, “Notes,” qtd. in Walker, 147) In 1964, painter and illustrator Louis le Brocquy (b. Dublin, 1916) “discovered” Polynesian ancestral skulls displayed in the Musée de l’Homme in Paris. The skulls are over-modelled in clay often with cowrie shells inserted for eyes, and the artist described them as being “painted ritualistically to contain the spirit” (le Brocquy, The Head Image 7, 22). A year afterwards le Brocquy drew an analogy between them and the head-cult of Celto-Ligurian origin which had been practiced near Aix-en-Provence, in Irish mythology such as the story of The Taín, and in archaeological sites such as the carved portal heads at Dysert O’Dea (le Brocquy, The Head Image 22; Walker 51; Kinsella).1 From 1968, the artist developed the head image in book illustration, tapestries, and “studies towards” portraits of leading Irish literary and cultural figures including W. B. Yeats (1865–1939), James Joyce (1882–1941), and Samuel Beckett (1906–89; figs. 1–3). My response to these head images has led me to refer to them in the title of this essay as “inscapes.” This was a term used by the English Jesuit poet Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–89)2 which resonates with le Brocquy’s “revelations” encapsulated in the quotation above.

Murphy: Louis le Brocquy’s Philosophical <i>Navigatio</i> Louis le Brocquy’s Philosophical Navigatio Dr Paula Murphy, Mater Dei Institute of Education, DCU Louis le Brocquy is probably the most celebrated Irish artist of the last century, and the commendations received on the celebration of his ninetieth birthday in 2006, including numerous exhibition retrospectives worldwide, and an RTE Arts Lives documentary dedicated to his life and work, confirm this estimation. Since the 1970s, an important aspect of his work has been the portrait heads series, which is a collection of paintings of famous artistic figures that includes Shakespeare, W.B. Yeats, Seamus Heaney, Samuel Beckett, James Joyce and Bono, amongst others. Le Brocquy’s heads are not traditional portraits. On the contrary, they conglomerate several images of the subject, often from different stages of life, into one painting. Moreover, the representation is not realistic but an attempt to represent both the outer image of the subject and his inner psychical world.
