Brendan Jamison (b.1979)Doorway - No. 10 Downing StreetSugar cube sculpture, size of perspex box 51cm high x 25.5cm deep x 30cm wide (20 x 10 x 12'')Provenance: The Eamonn Mallie CollectionOf Brendan Jamison and his Downing Street sculpture: The BBC wrote the following: 'Northern Ireland artist Brendan Jamison has claimed a special niche in the UK corridors of power.'The craftsman is a cubist of a different kind - he is known for carving thousands of sugar lumps into intricate buildings.He has been chosen for an exhibition inside 10 Downing Street. Visiting presidents and prime ministers from across the world will be able to see the iconic black door they have just stepped through, carved in sugar. Jamison, used 5,117 sugar cubes and took two months to complete his Downing Street door.’ Commenting on his sugar creations, Jamison revealed in 2003 he pioneered a technique of carving sugar cubes into intricate shapes. These are glued together with a special adhesive. His two-fold method of carving blocks of sugar and creating a permanent building has caught the imagination across the world resulting in his being a guest of governments around the world capturing sugar images of many of their most celebrated buildings. It was 'Ten Downing Street' however which catapulted Jamison onto the world stage with TV channels and international newspapers becoming very excited about this revolutionary method of making sculptures. When I saw 'Ten Downing Street' in Jamison's studio I asked him to give me 'first option' on the work given that I had been through the famous door Number 10 and stood outside it several times in my professional capacity. Jamison was agreeable to prioritise me but history militated against me. Word reached Downing Street about the sugar sculptured door and the young artist was invited to include it in a mixed exhibition. Jamison faced a dilemma. Downing Street sought to purchase the work. The artist consulted me, acting honourably in light of his commitment to me to get first call on 'Number Ten'. I readily gave way and the sculpture had a new permanent home in the hallway in 10 Downing Street. Some time later Jamison called me to inform me he had completed a second version of 10 Downing Street going into the Royal Ulster Academy Exhibition. Once the doors opened I rushed into the Museum and managed to get a red sticker on the sculpture.It is in good company across the globe with sugar sculptures in existence now of The Great Wall of China, Tate Modern in London, Helen's Tower Clandeboye, commissions by Vogue in Milan and by The Centre Pompidou, in Paris.Eamonn Mallie
Paddy McCann (b.1963)Green DoorOil on canvas, 59 x 48.5 (23¼ x 19¼”)Provenance: The Eamonn Mallie CollectionAlmost twenty years ago I asked Belfast College of Art lecturer and painter Neil Shawcross if he could recommend a young painter to me whom he deemed to be a talent. He instantly mentioned the name Paddy McCann, a fellow lecturer in Belfast College of Art. Neil in his usual low key manner added yes - he's a painter. Some time later I walked into the Fenderesky Gallery, located then in South Belfast, to witness an exhibition by McCann. I bought four works and phoned my collector colleague Dr. Robin Hyndman who arrived and bought two pieces and who still laments the fact that a painting which included a rainbow in its composition had already been sold.McCann, a South Armagh man is a deeply sensitive and intellectual artist with a profound awareness of the nuances of the world in which he lived and works. 'The Troubles' have subliminally permeated much of his output with 'watching' a big theme.'Watching' was a way of life in South Armagh when Paddy was growing up - watching for the dole man snooping, and of course with the arrival of the British army in the border area the 'watching' was a two way process .... soldiers watching the locals - the locals watching the soldiers. Even today 'watching' is in the border psyche - locals keeping an eye out for the police or Customs officials - summed up in a familiar country song which goes like this …. use the code of the border road - flash the lights at me. McCann's watchers are usually well embedded in his landscapes and quite often only emerge when one starts to live with his paintings.The death at the hands of British soldiers of twelve year old Majella O’Hare, close to Ballymoyer Church in August 1976, had a huge impact on McCann who has returned again and again to this subject.McCann is not, however, an insular painter. He is familiar with art currents across the globe. He is a big follower of the Canadian born artist Phillip Guston who settled into an abstract form of art making in New York. 'House with Green Door' in this vein has been won out of everything that seems wrong and yet, is right - executed with insouciance. The hint at a half door in a windowless house pulls us back to the simple rural life of yesterday. The half door kept the children in and the hens out in those days. A developed eye cannot be but impressed with the use by McCann of four colours, black, white, green and pink. These colours are not normally bedfellows and yet they feel at home in this little house. Les modes passent - le style est éternel! Eamonn Mallie
