June 26 to July 22, 2009

We are pleased to open the summer season with an exhibition of Jacqueline Stanley’s paintings and drawings celebrating the abundance and vibrant colour of the West Cork landscape and its flowers. It is an exciting opportunity to see work in the environment that inspired it.

Known for her strong sense of line and colour, Stanley has been interpreting the landscape of the southwest for nearly 20 years. In addition to a strong sense of place, her work conveys the lush, sometimes startling colours of spring and summer of the semi-tropical landscape. Wildflowers, abundant meadows, rolling hills, hidden coves, sparkling seas, all are part of the delights of West Cork.

The exhibition will be opened on Saturday, June 27th by London gallerist, Angela Flowers, at a reception from 3 to 5 pm.

Born in England, Jacqueline Stanley has lived and worked in Ireland since 1975. She has shown extensively in Ireland and the UK, and her work is in many important public collections. This is her second solo exhibition at the Catherine Hammond Gallery.

As of June 26, the gallery will be open six days a week, Tuesday to Sunday, from 11 to 6.
