Luan Gallery presents the work of Eoin Francis McCormack and Susanne Wawra. If Not For You by Eoin Francis McCormack will feature in the New Gallery while Living in a Bubble by Susanne Wawra will be shown in the Library and River Gallery spaces.

Susanne Wawra is a German artist based in Dublin. Working across different media, Susanne explores the intersection between personal autobiography and historical events. Utilising photographs from her own family albums, Wawra draws on printed matter to interrogate her experience of growing up in East Germany before the fall of the Wall. Her use of mundane source material combined with the layered process of collage enables a material reimagining of the tension between fiction and reality, past and present. Wawra is a Painting graduate of NCAD. Susanne has been named as one of the four artists of “50 People to Watch in 2017” in The Irish Times.

Independent Curator Linda Shevlin says:

“I‘m really excited to launch this exhibition of work by two extremely talented painters. While Susanne‘s work draws on her own personal experiences of growing up in East Germany, Eoin takes the juxtaposition of painter/worker as a concern. It‘s this variation of themes and source materials that will make this a very dynamic exhibition.“
