Conor Kelly
Lampara Descomunal / The Monstrous Lamp
25. November – 15. Januar 2012

Conor Kelly, Elegy to the auto-erotic republic, 2011, Öl auf Leinwand, 82 x 98 cm

At the same time as the Jahresgaben exhibition, we are pleased to present the solo exhibition of the artist Conor Kelly in the Kunstverein. Kelly was born in Cork, Ireland, in 1980. He studied Fine Art at the University of Ulster in Belfast and completed his MFA at the Glasgow School of Art in 2008. His thoroughly "abstract" painting and free brushwork encourages a playful approach to stories and fictions. The exhibition "Lambada Descomunal / The Monstrous Lamp" presents Kelly's paintings from the last two years, which members can also purchase as part of the annual exhibition.
