The Art of Robert Costelloe by Patricia McCabe (Art historian) PDF Summary

Book Description: The short but brilliant career as sculptor and painter of the Irish artist Robert Costelloe included periods in New York, North Carolina, Rome and London. His tragic death in 1974 at the age of 31 ended the career of an artist whose creativity and diversity merited a high profile in Irish art of the late 1960s and early 1970s. He was the recipient of various awards at home and abroad and his volume of work includes drawings, paintings, ceramics and sculpture, examples of which are in important collections in Ireland and abroad. His pictures are abstract paintings with colour and form as subjects and are unusually large for the period. Costelloe also created a varied collection of abstract outdoor sculptures which continue to be exhibited in Ireland and America. Yet due to his early death and the widely dispersed nature of his works, many of which are monumental in size, Costelloe has remained almost unknown to the artistic world. In this critical work Dr. Patricia McCabe has assembled and illustrated over a hundred works by Costelloe, and pieced together his brilliant but short artistic career. This book is intended to place Costelloe among the pioneers of modern Irish art of the late twentieth century.
