The Luan Gallery, Athlone welcomes two artists, Paul Quast and Dympna Bonfield, to exhibit alongside one another in the coming year. Despite their differing styles, both artists have strong connection to Athlone that ties the two together. Quast utilizes a spectrum of constructive and scientific methods in his practice to create calculated, mathematically formulated works. His use of thermodynamics, liquid cohesion and electro-magnetic fields blur the lines of art and science. In contrast, Bonfield’s work is organic both in medium and execution. Her method of applying oil with a
palette knife allows for the manipulation of colour freely on the canvas and allows her work to centre around a spontaneous expression of emerging forms.
Group Show: 17 January – 16 March
