"Your art is like a happy pill hanging on the wall" Mairead Ronan
The Doorway Gallery is delighted to host an exhibition by Francis Boag, entitled, Con Brio, on Thursday October 3rd 6 - 7.30 pm, at 24 South Frederick Street. Irish television and radio presenter, Mairead Ronan will officially open Francis Boag’s solo show.
The pleasure in Boag’s work is key to its success, there’s a joy to his painting that radiates from the canvas and becomes a sharing of happy memories with each person who views it. His interpretations of the world he sees around him, whether it is the view from his studio window, or a grand palazzo in Venice, are all imbued with an optimism and harmony which delights. His colours grow and sing in carefully constructed designs, and the uplifting quality to his work can turn the white cube of the gallery space into an optimistic and glowing art space that flourishes.
