Eilis O’Connell: A Family of Things, the first major survey exhibition of one of our most important contemporary artists, is at the F.E. McWilliam Gallery in Banbridge, Co. Down until September 30. It features unseen early sculptures and key examples from throughout the career of a renowned sculptor who is perhaps not celebrated enough at home. Supported by the Henry Moore Foundation the exhibition explores the development of O’Connell’s sculpture practice over almost five decades. Based in Cork O’Connell was born in Derry, studied in Cork and Boston and spent several decades working in England where she was celebrated for large scale sculptures in steel, stone and bronze. A member of Aosdana and an international Fellow of the Royal Society of Sculptors she has an extensive exhibition history at home and internationally and a founder member of the National Sculpture Factory in Cork.
