This visual experience from the ÍOVA collective brings fine art to Temple Bar. For the month of April, Steve Turner, Clodagh O’ Leary, John Foley, Ishmael Claxton (featured in the current issue of Totally Dublin), Harry Phipps and a phalanx of other visual artists have commandeered the gorgeous Tøn Gallery, in Temple Bar.
“An investigation through colour photography into contrasting textures and forms, showcasing a balance of opposing creative perspectives and inherent beauty that can emerge from today’s chaotic world”, as stated by the collective themselves, this exploration of colour and its relationship with narrative and composition promises to be an early highlight in another busy year for Claxton and his associates, and is surely a mandatory visit for anyone with a passing interest in the visual arts.
