trackback
From our first year of operation in 2005, The Dock has presented an open exhibition -Open Season - every December by artists from this region. These exhibitions were major events featuring hundreds of works. At this point, we want to create an opportunity to highlight work by some of these artists whose practice warrants more focused attention.
EIGHT showcases the work of Clive Bright, Majella Clancy, Dearbhail Connon, Billy Moore, Ricardo Marques, Elaine Reynolds, Heidi Wickham and Kate Wilson. While the eight artists all have associations with the region, they were selected by virtue of the diversity of approaches and media they employ, encompassing sculpture, painting, drawing and installation. What they all share is a commitment to quality within their work and a professionalism toward the on-going development of their practice.
The show opens this Friday, as usual with lovely refreshments, at 5.30pm…don’t miss it!
