SMARTART 101 Exhibit gets you thinking

Thu, Aug 20, 2009

YOU COULD find an art exhibition just about anywhere in Galway, from the train station to a coffee shop. However one of the more unusual places has to be the offices of Orla Murray Financial Services which is hostomg SMARTART 101 – Social Modern Art Relevant Today and Real Tomorrow for the last four weeks. This vast body of uber modern work produced by Irish artist Raymond Burrows began over five years ago and SMARTART 101 is the culmination of his creative efforts shown as a whole. The individual elements in Ray’s work span from the year he was born to the present day. Each piece runs with its own narrative, resonating on many levels of interpretation yet all the work assimilates to form a whole.
