The exhibition marks the return of Marjoram’s work to The Kenny Gallery, celebrating the life and legacy of an artist who passed in 2024, but whose paintings continue to resonate with lovers of the Irish landscape.
Bringing together a wide selection of his final paintings, the show reflects the breadth of Marjoram’s vision, from the quiet stillness of bog and river to the movement of sea and sky. All the artworks are for sale.
Born in Dublin’s Liberties in 1936, Jerry Marjoram developed his love of painting under the guidance of Maurice McGonigal and Seán Keating. Over time, the west of Ireland, and particularly Connemara, became an enduring source of inspiration. Its boglands, rivers, mountains and coastal waters were subjects he returned to again and again, building a visual record of a landscape that is both familiar and deeply personal.
Jerry Marjoram – from the Artist’s Studio runs at The Kenny Gallery, Galway until Tuesday, September 22, Monday to Saturday, from 9am to 5pm, and online at www.thekennygallery.ie
Admission is free, all are welcome, and the artworks are for sale.
