Introducing: Shane Rafferty at The Kenny Gallery
NOW AT THE KENNY GALLERY - A selection of paintings by Shane Rafferty. New to the Kenny Gallery, we are delighted to bring you the distinctive contemporary paintings of Shane Rafferty. A deceptively minimal approach masks a formal richness when comprehended 'in the flesh'; and a conceptual depth is evident once the viewer realises that each expressive mark is a very intentional 'hoodie' or each dash and dot is a considered individual - whether a political demonstrator or a displaced migrant amongst a throng... an important artist, and one to watch!
