Galway Arts Centre in partnership with the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA) are pleased to present a group exhibition usual and generous ways curated by writer and poet Padraig Regan.
This exhibition brings together works from the collection of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, rock samples from the James Mitchell Geology Museum, a selection of historical maps and diagrams, and material from Robinson’s archive held at University of Galway to explore how artists and scientists have tried to give visual expression to the processes that have shaped our physical surroundings. Including works by artists; Richard Long, Barrie Cooke, Damien Hirst, Dorothy Cross, Seiha Kurosawa, David Beattie, Patrick Ireland/Brian O’Doherty, Patrick Hall, Anne Madden, Hilary Heron, Hamish Fulton and Brian King.
usual and generous ways presents works from artists working across a range of media, from Ireland and elsewhere, in which stone is not just a material to be shaped by the artist’s hand, but a subject-matter, an object of inquiry, and an agent to be thought-with and thought-through.
