Opening Reception Thursday 28 February, 5.30 – 8pm

Peppercanister Gallery presents its annual Spring Exhibition featuring an exciting selection of modern Irish & British painting and sculpture by artists of great distinction and achievement. This year’s exhibition will feature a major work by Albert Irvin RA from 1994 titled Beacon II. Irvin turned 90 years old last year and is one of Britain’s greatest living abstract painters of the last 50

years.

Also on view will be new work by Liam Belton RHA, as well as a work by renowned Scottish-born artist John Bellany RA (whose 70th birthday was recently honoured with a retrospective at The National Gallery Edinburgh). A modern allegorical scene Et in Arcadia Nos after Poussin from artist Conor Walton, along with very fine examples by Barrie Cooke HRHA, Nathalie Du Pasquier, Deirdre McLoughlin, Simon McWilliams, Colette Murphy, Hughie O’Donoghue, Neil Shawcross RHA and Charlie Whisker combine to make a cogently diverse and engaging exhibition.
