Renowned Kilkenny artist wins The Savills Prize
THE most significant award in Irish contemporary art – The Savills Prize – has been won by Kilkenny artist Paul Mosse.
The €5,000 Savills Art Prize is awarded to the artist who has produced an outstanding body of work in the last year or made some other substantial contribution to the visual arts in Ireland.
The winner was announced from a shortlist of five contenders yesterday evening at Vue 2018, Ireland’s national contemporary art fair at the Royal Hibernian Academy.
The other four contenders were Claire Halpin, Janet Mullarney, Gordon Harris and Gabhann Dunne.
Paul is of the country’s most renowned living artists. The Bennettsbridge artist’s work features recycled materials and has questioned the cyclical nature of decay and renewal for over 50 years and time itself is one of his favourite elements.
His ‘What’s With The Apocalypse?’ exhibition was internationally acclaimed and cemented his reputation as one of the most significant artists from Ireland in decades.
Despite being a multiple award-winning artist, Paul said he was taken aback at winning the Savills Prize.
“This award gives any artist the things they value most, approval and the time to produce more art,” he added.
Part of a multi-talented family, the Aosdana member is a brother of ceramicist Nicholas and sculptor Tania, and an uncle of photographer and filmmaker Richard.
Tracy Matt says:
how to get husband or boyfriend back from another woman no matter why he left you by Powerful love spell caster dr unity.
My name is Tracy Matt from USA. My husband left me for another woman and i wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back , I had no choice than to try it. I messaged the spell caster called dr unity, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything will be okay before 11 hours. He cast the spell and surprisingly 11 hours later my husband called me. I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that had happened He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him that was how we started living together happily again.thanks to dr unity . if you are here and your Lover is turning you down, or your husband moved to another woman, do not cry anymore, contact Dr.Unity for help now..
