Tom Byrne
Samuel Beckett - Acrylic on Canvas
Tom
Byrne was born in Dublin in 1962. He studied at Dun Laoghaire College of Art
and Design, where he trained in the Bauhaus tradition, a revolutionary 21st
century school of artistic training which integrated craftsmanship, art and
technology.
Byrne
describes, "religion, politics and celebrity all play equally important roles
in my work". His strong interest in current affairs along with his punk
mentality merges to create an artist who is in tune with the world around him.
Informed by spirituality and popular culture alike, the artist thinks of
himself as a contemporary artist first and foremost, selecting beauty from
everyday experience and channelling it into painterly abstractions.
Byrne
is highly influenced by the writings of Samuel Beckett and James Joyce. Byrne
pays homage to these leading Irish writers in his paintings throughout his
portrait series, depicting these intellectuals in a "veristic" manner. This
verism harks back to ancient Roman portraits, characterized by the inclusion of
minuscule details including all the furrows and wrinkles of the skin. He
modernizes this technique with loose brushstrokes, occasional impasto, and a
very vibrant palette.
In
addition to portraiture, the Irish coastline and bridges of the Liffey are also prominent
themes in Byrne's oeuvre. The theme of the Liffey bridges has become his most
ambitious series yet, and as a result his book, North Side, South Side: 117
Views of the Liffey Bridges, was recently published.
Tom
Byrne's style is very unique, he creates luxurious textures in nuanced, lush
layers of paint and structured layers of colour, mediated by his own aesthetic
experiences. Swirls of jewel-like colours transcend opaque, opulent washes of
tone. Furthermore he utilizes wax to create a luminous tangible surface which
creates a multi-sensory experience, engaging the viewer not just on a visual
level, but through a tactile experience as well.
