Ciarán Clear is best known for dramatic moonlight scenes of his native Rush in North County Dublin and of Connemara.
He was a founder member of the Fingal Artists Group in 1963, which included Maurice MacGonigal, Fergus O’Ryan, Bea
Orpen, Patrick Leonard and Tom Nisbet. Together they held exhibitions throughout Leinster in a bid to make art more
accessible to wider audiences. His first solo exhibition took place at the Goodwin gallery in Limerick and his last with
Gerald Davis in Dublin in 1999. He was a keen musician as well as being involved in his local Dramatic Society in Rush.
