Painting As Material 11 / http://www.rhagallery.ie/lecture-series/painting-as-material-ii/ @RHA Gallery



Recent discourses in painting have witnessed an appetite to bypass theoretical and ideological de – nitions of the discipline that have come to dominate discussion around painting, in favour of painters themselves reclaiming the agenda and leading through individual practice. Paint as medium and material carries endless creative possibilities. The RHA School has invited a number of painters to talk publicly in the context of how the material of paint is embedded in the broader practice

Talks are open to the public and will take place on Wednesday evenings in the Friends’ Room at 5:30pm. Please note that the Mark O’Kelly talk will take place on Thursday, 8 March at 5:30pm.

Painting workshop feedback.

I just wanted to thank everyone that attended the workshops on Tuesday and Wednesday. My ambition was for a re-newed excitement for painting. I certainly went away with this. I think it would have been useful to explore supports for painting and various priming methods in more detail. In the meantime The John Jones web site is worth looking at for this information. I have added this information under art suppliers. Please make any suggestions that you may have for how this type of workshop can be improved, I would be very grateful for your feedback.  Please find some of the initial painting experiments made on Tuesday. I look forward to seeing how the work progresses on my next visit in a few weeks time.  Sarah
