Three lecturers at IT Carlow’s Wexford Campus School of Art and Design, all of whom are renowned artists, will showcase their work during the month of February in national and international exhibitions.
Remco de Fouw’s work will feature in the group exhibition Cosmic Dust in Visual Carlow which has just opened and runs until 17th May. Gathering the ideas of artists, scientists and philosophers, Cosmic Dust explores ways in which art science and the spiritual can combine to offer a deeper understanding of the metaphysical nature of existence.
Anthony Lyttle’s solo show, Thicket, opens at the Cross Gallery, Dublin on 5th February and continues until Sat. 28th February. Anthony Lyttle’s drawings are made through a systematic process of mark making, mostly dots, dashes, and lines, running through horizontal and vertical directions, as in the warp and weft in weaving. The result is a mêlée, or wall of drawn marks that acts as a field of energy of repeated actions. The size of the drawings is human in scale, with the viewer encountering the space of the drawing.
Brian Hand is exhibiting in a show entitle Traces in the Dark, part of Imaginary Archive at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia, which opens next week. Traces in the Dark is all about the ways in which we engage with the margins of recorded history with the artist focusing on a past that is not easy to comprehend, visualise and digest. Mr. Hand is also exhibiting in Horse at the Void Gallery Derry which opens 21st of Feb.
