George Gillespie RUA (1924-1995) Farmstead by the Stream oil on canvas signed lower left 51 x 76¼cm (20 x 30in) Private CollectionGeorge Kennedy Gillespie was born in Belfast in 1924. Educated from 1941 until 1945 at Belfast High School, he attended evening classes at Belfast College of Art, studying jewellery, silversmith as well as painting. His interest in fine art was encouraged in the late 1950's when he attended painting classes in the studio of R. Boyd Morrison in Hollywood, County Down. He held his first solo-exhibition in 1980 in Dublin at the Oriel Gallery Dublin. Exhibitions were also held at the Kenny Gallery of Galway. Gillespie admired the academic work of such Ulster practitioners as J. Humbert Craig and Frank McKelvey. Donegal was his first love, for example Horn Head and Lough Finn, followed by the rugged scenery of Connemara and the West Coast. As he had to avoid prolonged exposure to the elements, the camera assisted him in his compositions.

Hughie O'Donoghue RA (b.1953) Course of the Diver mixed media on card signed lower left 38 x 58cm (15 x 23in) Purdy Hicks Gallery, London; Nicholas Gallery, Belfast (label verso); Private CollectionAlthough born in Manchester, as was his father, Hughie O'Donoghue is considered to be an Irish artist, not least by himself. Born of an Irish mother and of Irish descent on his father's side, he spent much of his childhood in County Mayo. O'Donoghue studied at Goldsmiths College and upon graduation became artist-in-residence, first at Drax power station in Yorkshire and then, in London's National Gallery. Hughie O'Donoghue's paintings are highly abstracted figure paintings, an approach that is said to demonstrate the respect he has in his own practice for the history of art. His method is derived from a knowledge and understanding of the methods of both abstract and figurative painters of the past which he attempts to synthesise in his own work. His father's experiences throughout the Second World War are given universal significance in his paintings by being melded, either through his treatment in scale and pigment or through more explicit content. O'Donoghue was elected as a member of the Royal Academy in 2009 and is considered one of the leading painters of his generation; he was recently selected to design windows for the Henry V11, Lady Chapel, at Westminster Abbey.

Patrick Collins RHA (1911-1994) Bird Bath on the Lawn (1977) oil on canvas signed lower right & dated '77 48½ x 46cm (19 x 18in) Tom Caldwell Gallery, Belfast (label verso); Oriel Gallery, Dublin 1992; Collection of Finbarr & Moyra O'Donovan Retrospective Exhibition, Dublin, Cork and Belfast 1982: No.78. Patrick Collins by Frances Ruane: page 94 (illustrated) Patrick Collins was born in Sligo in 1911. After leaving school, he worked for twenty years for an insurance company in Dublin, attending evening classes at NCAD, and studying life drawing under George Collie. By 1945, Collins became a full-time painter. He drew enormous strength and inspiration from the Irish landscape and its people. His grey-blue abstract landscape painting evoked a spirit of folklore and mythology, containing images of farmlands and figures. Collins had his first solo exhibition in 1956 at the Ritchie Hendriks Gallery in Dublin, displaying 30 paintings. He was elected HRHA (Honorary Council of the Royal Hibernian Academy) in 1980 and a member of Aosdána in 1981 and had a major retrospective exhibition by the Irish Arts Council (Cork, Belfast, Dublin) in 1982. Several solo exhibitions followed, including a Retrospective at Sligo Art Gallery in 1985. Two years later, Patrick Collins was the first artist to be honoured with the accolade SAOI by Aosdána in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the visual arts in Ireland. In 1988 he received an Honorary Doctorate of Literature from Trinity College, Dublin. His paintings have been exhibited widely in Ireland and in Europe, and are held in many public and private collections worldwide.

Tony O'Malley HRHA (1913-2003) 5 Feathers (1983) mixed media on board signed & dated August '83 lower right, titled lower left & bears artist's archive no: 6269 on reverse 40 x 50cm (16 x 20in) Nicholas Gallery, Belfast (label verso); Private CollectionTony O'Malley was born in Callan, Co.Kilkenny in 1913 and was a self-taught artist, having drawn and painted for pleasure from childhood. He worked as a bank officìal until contracting tuberculosis in the 1940s. He began painting in earnest while convalescing and, though he did at first return to bank work, he continued to paint and in 1951 began exhibiting his work. O'Malley first visited St. Ives, Cornwall in 1955, then an important center of abstract art before settling there in 1960. The simplicity and formal mastery of O’Malley’s constructions reflect the modernist tradition of assemblage that stretches back to Pablo Picasso and to Kurt Schwitters, artists he admired. Some of his contemporaries in St Ives, like Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth and Peter Lanyon were also drawn to the medium of collage and assemblage. Drawing was the necessary root of all of O’Malley’s work and concisely knotted the mediums together. A highly respected artist, his works are represented in all major Irish museums and included in the most significant public and private collections of Irish art.
Lot 152
Carey Clarke PPRHA (b.1936) Still Life - Fruit & Flowers oil on canvas signed lower right 71 x 92cm (28 x 36in) Private CollectionCarey Clarke was born in Donegal in 1936 and was educated at St. Andrew's College, Dublin. He attended the National College of Art (NCA) from 1954 to 1959 and took up a teaching post in the College in 1963. While at NCA, he was awarded the Royal Dublin Society's prize for portraiture and the Taylor Art Scholarship. He studied painting at the Salzburg Academy in the summer of 1969 and in 1976 took a year's sabbatical to research tempera painting in Florence. In 1985, he received the inaugural Keating/McLoughlin Bursary for Art and a silver medal at the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA) annual exhibition. Clarke began exhibiting in 1956 at the Irish Exhibition of Living Art and had his first solo show at the Molesworth Gallery in 1966. He participated in numerous group shows including the RHA and the Oireachtas exhibitions. Clarke was elected a member of the RHA in 1980 and served as Academy President from 1992-1995.

Peter Curling (b.1955) At The Top of the Hill watercolour signed lower left 44 x 74½cm (17 x 29in) The Tryon Gallery Ltd, London (label verso); Private CollectionPeter Curling was born in Waterford in 1955. Curling showed a precocious early talent and had his first exhibition in the racing centre of Lambourn at the tender age of fourteen. Sell out exhibitions in Dublin followed and it wasn't long before he came to the attention of Aylmer Tryon, founder of the Tryon Gallery and the renowned horse portraitist Susan Crawford. They advised him to go to Florence where he spent two years studying in the studio of Signorina Simi. This classical training stood him in good stead as he has always placed the utmost importance in sound draughtsmanship. It was to this end that he spent a short but invaluable time with the sculptor John Skeaping R.A.. Skeaping impressed on the young artist the value of economy of line and the ultimate goal of depicting movement, balance and a solidity of form without lumbering the work with too much detail. Curling also developed a close link with the racing world and has enjoyed the whole spectrum of that fascinating sport from riding in races to ownership, training point-to-pointers, and stewarding.
Lot 67
John Behan RHA (b.1938) Western Famine Ship unique bronze signed & dated 71 x 65 x 28cm (28 x 25 x 11in) Acquired directly from the artist; Private Collection John Behan has explored many themes of ancient mythology, literature and legend. Each theme is moved to a depth of exploration, the imbued meaning in the works derive from his own in-depth knowledge of his subject, which is translated into the shape and form of his bronze work. John Behan is renowned for his many themed works, his great Bulls, Birds and Ships, 'Paiste' and 'Family' are other universal themes explored by Behan. In their simplicity of depiction they are created with an energy; great metaphors of life's journey. John Behan first created The Famine Ship to stand at the base of Croagh Patrick, Co. Mayo. Fierce in impact, the hull of the boat is birthed at land, the mast laden with the skeleton bodies of lost emigrants. In large or smaller scale The Famine Ship series carries an indescrible depth of history, poignant loss and struggle for life. Commissioned by the Irish government to commemorate the contribution of Irish emigrants worldwide, a 26-by-24-foot bronze themed piece on The Famine Ship entitled "Arrival" now stands in the plaza in front of the United Nations headquarters in New York.
Lot 24
Frank McKelvey RHA RUA (1895-1974) The Park Pond oil on canvas signed lower left 38½ x 51½cm (15 x 20in) Private Collection Frank McKelvey first attracted attention with his pictures of 'old' Belfast, and his landscape painting. In 1917, his artwork was accepted by the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA) when he was only 23. For the next fifty-five years he showed every year at the RHA. In 1919, he showed five paintings at the Water Colour Society of Ireland exhibition. In 1921, McKelvey was elected a member of the Belfast Art Society. McKelvey was considered one of the most successful Irish landscape painters of his time. He was gifted both with a superb technical fluency and an inquisitive mind so that painting to him represented a sense of discovery which, notwithstanding the often repetitive nature of some of his landscapes, imbued his work with a constant freshness.

Markey Robinson (1918-1999) The Madeleine Flower Market gouache on board signed lower left 58½ x 81½cm (23 x 32in) Private CollectionMarkey Robinson - Maverick Spirit by Michael Mulreany page 52 (illustrated).Markey Robinson was born in Belfast in 1918. He was the son of a house painter and spent time as a boxer and as a merchant sailor. He trained at the Belfast College of Art and was a prolific Irish artist with a distinctive naive expressionist style. His first exhibitions were in Belfast during World War II. His main passion was painting, but he also produced sculptures, and designed some stained glass panels. His paintings cover a wide range of subjects, but there are certain recurring features. As an artist, Markey Robinson produced artworks with similar elements to those of Matisse, Derain and Picasso (especially his clown and figure studies). His work has also been influenced by the Incas and the Aztecs, as evidenced by his authentic style of bold brush paintwork.

Charles Brady HRHA (1926-1997) Paperbacks (1994) oil on linen signed lower right 49 x 29cm (19 x 11in) Grants Fine Art Gallery, Co Down (label verso); Private CollectionCharles Brady was born in New York in 1926 but spent most of his life in Ireland. In 1948 he entered the Art Students League of New York and took a yearlong course. After art school he continued to paint, beginning to exhibit in the early 1950s. He had his first solo exhibition in the Urban Gallery in 1955. The following year 1956 saw him travel by ferry to Ireland and it was here he began painting the Irish countryside. He returned to New York in 1958 but in 1959 he moved back to Ireland and settled there for good. Poverty forced him to paint on small pieces of cardboard and small pictures became typical; he began to value the intimacy, and affordability, of small paintings. In the 1960s he began painting still lives of everyday objects such as envelopes and tickets and this also became typical. These small, modest, compositions allowed him to refine a spare almost mystical style.
