Hughie O'Donoghue, Irish/British b.1953 - German Tanks, Forge-les-Eaux, 1996; acrylic wash on paper, signed and dated lower right 'O'Donoghue 96', 58 x 76 cm (ARR) Provenance: with Purdy Hicks Gallery, London (according to the label attached to the reverse of the frame) Note: O'Donoghue's work considers the concept of place, time and memory and in this work he writes names over an abstracted landscape to explore the past and the places associated with it. Through the application of broad swathes of deep pigments, O'Donoghue evokes the powerful emotions which these remembered places continue to evoke throughout our lives. The artist has exhibited widely internationally throughout his long career, with recent highlights including 'Time, Tide and the Memory of the House', Hunt Museum, Limerick, in 2019-20 and 'Original Sins' at the National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin, in 2022. His work is in public collections throughout the world including The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge; The Irish Museum of Modern Art, and The Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin; Ulster Museum, Belfast; British Museum, London; Dallas Museum of Art, Michigan Museum of Art and Yale Center for British Art in the USA.
