Eamon O‘Kane‘s (*1974) paintings, drawings, and prints are fluid engagements with modernity. Using acrylic, oil paint, spray paint, or silkscreen, the artist creates enticing views of interiors and exteriors. Landscapes, Skyscapes and Poolscapes intertwine to form harmonious constellations. The Irish-born artist works serially. For example, the new exhibition presents, among other works, Eamon O‘Kane‘s conceptual exploration of California‘s site-specific architectural style, also known as Desert Modernism. Another highlight are O‘Kane‘s latest drawings and prints of tree motifs in bright colors that expand the artist‘s ongoing series. 

Eamon O‘Kane was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the Taylor Art Award and the Fulbright Award. His work is exhibited in international galleries and museums, such as the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, and the Museum Frieder Burda in Baden-Baden, Germany. He is Professor of Visual Art at the Art Academy, Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, at the University of Bergen in Norway.

It is with great pleasure that we open our gallery in Paris with the second solo exhibition of Eamon O‘Kane.
