Waddington Galleries, Montreal;The Collection of Mervyn & Pat Solomon
Daniel O`Neill exhibited at the Waddington Galleries between 1946 and 1955. After leaving Ireland in 1958 to move to London he exhibited with the Waddington Gallery in Montreal, Canada. During this period he also exhibited in New York (1947), in Beverly Hills, California (1948) and in a group show in Amsterdam. George Waddington, who was Victor`s youngest brother, worked in the Dublin Gallery but when Victor moved to London, George decided to move to Montreal where he opened Waddington Galleries Inc in 1959.Mervyn and Pat Solomon have been known in the art world as passionate collectors of art for generations. From Belfast, the family name is also synonymous with the music industry, Mervyn`s father being one of the duo Solomon & Peres (Morris Solomon and Harold Peres) music and entertainment retailers, distributors and producers based in Belfast between 1924-1981, later acquired by Decca Records. Mervyn himself founded Emerald Music in 1964 and was the first person to record Rory Gallagher and Van Morrison.The present collection demonstrates a support for Northern visual artists: Frank McKelvey, Daniel O`Neill, Colin Middleton, Tom Carr, Cecil Maguire, Martin Mooney, Markey Robinson and a clear interest in Irish artists working abroad, in Roderic O`Conor and Aloysius O`Kelly. Contemporary names such as Sandra Bell and Michael Leventis are evidence of an appreciation of later trends.
