Celtic Coastlines at the North Star Art Gallery- Ithaca
August 4, 2018 - August 31, 2018
A 36" x 40" studio work by Keeler of the Cliffs of Moher
Brian Keeler presents a portrayal of the Celtic Coastlines and Hebridian Highlands- this show
represents a
return to his ancestral lands with a visual connection and an emotional relation to the land.
The rugged western coastlines of Scotland and Ireland are
presented here in this show at the North Star Art Gallery. Keeler traveled to the southwest of
Ireland in the autumn of 2016 to paint over a dozen small plein air studies of County Clare and
County Kerry. The drama of light, air, topography and sea are expressed here in small studies
that record the landscapes with immediacy of the painting process necessitated when
working en plein air. These intimate little paintings represent a visual shorthand to record the
essence of locations with an economy of means to suggest his impressions.
In Scotland, another two week trip in 2017 to the Outer Hebrides on the northwest flank of
Scotland -these Hebridian Islands of Skye, Lewis and Harris provided the muse while there.
The small Scottish coastal villages of Ullapool, Plockton and Achiltibuie offered the western
facing evening light as the evocation to paint there and go further.
The North Star Art Gallery is just a few miles east of Cornell University in Ithaca, NY at 743
Snyder Hill Road. Www.northstarartgallery.com- check out this web site to preview the show.
