New Works 2011-12

Alice Beresford

09 June - 16 August
GB Shaw Theatre Bar

Last chance to see this exhibition before it closes Thursday 16th of August

Alice Beresford is an artist who uses photography as her medium, but experiments with alternative processes with which to show it. 

Her most recent works are printed onto aluminium and use neon lighting to frame and illuminate.
These six works are all rooted in Americana, her images lifted from streetscapes encountered during travels made in the last two years through Hawaii, California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New York.


Incorporated her penchant for neon into classic images (“pushing the familiar but allowing the viewer to have a real sense of space and place”), she achieves a wonderful, theatrical result. She is based between London and Co. Wicklow in Ireland, but gathers most of her material from travels abroad. She trained formally in New York at Parsons School of Design and with commercial photographers in Dublin. She has had solo exhibitions in Dublin and London.
