    IRISH ART COLLECTION AT ENGLISH AUCTION

    Saturday, March 13th, 2021

    No less than 24 lots of Irish art will kick off an online sale by Dreweatts of Newbury, Berkshire on March 18.  The auction of Modern and Contemporary Art starts with a private Irish collection from artists ranging from Colin Middleton to Gladys Maccabe to Felim Egan.  Dreweatts say the collection has been passionately assembled over the last 30 years by a private individual and that the art on offer touches on the recurring themes including nostalgia, escapism and a sense of identity.Estimates are from £600-£800 for a charcoal drawing by William Conor to £10,000-£15,000 for two works by Gerard Dillon.  The artists featured are  Gerard Dillon, William Conor, Colin Middleton, Markey Robinson, Gladys Maccabe, Maurice MacGonigal, Maurice Wilks, Frank McKelvery, Kitty Wilmer O’Brien, Henry Healy, Basil Blackshaw, Graham Knuttel, Sean McSweeney, Ciaran Clear, Felim Egan and Martin Finnin.  Dreweatts sold a large work by the Limerick artist John Shinnors for a hammer price of £40,000 last October.

    TIMELY LONDON VIEW FOR MORGAN O’DRISCOLL’S IRISH ART

    Tuesday, April 14th, 2015

    Given the strength of sterling and the weakness of the euro the timing for Morgan O’Driscoll’s London viewing of his Irish and International Art auction at the RDS in Dublin on April 20 is good.  What better time to introduce a new English audience to Irish art and artists – the three day viewing is at La Galleria in Pall Mall on April 13, 14 and 15 – than when the euro is on the floor?  Estimates, as in most latter day auctions in Ireland, are reasonable. Here is a small selection:
