WHYTE'S IMPORTANT IRISH ART 29 NOVEMBER 2021 AT 6PM

102 76 Patricia Burns REDEMPTION ROAD oil on canvas; (unframed) signed and titled on reverse 39.50 by 39.50in. (100.3 by 100.3cm) Born in Dublin, Burns studied Fine Art at Dublin Institute of Technology and Crawford College of Art + Design, Cork. She first exhibited with the Taylor Galleries in 2014 with ‘November Paintings’, they describe her work thus: “…Burns is interested in the hidden narrative in overlooked or changing parts of the built landscape. Her paintings often focus on specific places, most notably the in-between spaces of suburbs and ring-roads. Tomas McCarthy has said of her work that it “speaks to us from the twilight zone of remembrance and exile. Her haunting images are a technical triumph. The subject matter and the handling of it is unique and highly disciplined. Anyone who sees her work will be impressed by its uncompromising vision, its certainty of home-comings, its prodigious promise of a definition of home that transcends geography and crosses generations.” Her work is represented in corporate and private collections throughout Ireland and in the public collections of AIB Group, AXA Insurance, Ballinglen Arts Foundation, NUI Galway, and the OPW / State Art Collection, amongst others. Patricia Burns lives and works in Cork city. €2,000-€3,000 (£1,690-£2,540 approx.) Click here for more images and to bid on this lot76
