That robot aint candy!!

If you're free in Dublin next Thursday (July 15th) head down to the MAD Art Gallery between 7 and 10 pm to see our favourite artist in action!

Photobucket

The show features three artists who use the urban environment as a common theme in their work, while looking at it in different ways. Shane O'Connor's prints appear familiar until you look closer. His cityscapes are filled with colour and inhabited by friendly and not so friendly characters. Carolyn Walsh shows urban environments once full of life but now in a less than perfect state, yet still full of hustle and bustle. Cecilia Danell's paintings are based on stills from animated videos she has made over the last three years and comment on the process of regeneration, housing projects and Utopian ideals as envisaged by the modernist architects.
