Gang from Glenamaddy Community School and I, before Is Was exhibition finished up a couple of weeks ago (used with their permission). Heartened by the enthusiasm of these young artists, who visited with their teachers on the last day of the show! #deankelly #iswas #art #exhibition #galway

Got sorted with a Gaeilge/Deutsch version by Máire Mhac an tSaoi, thanks for your help David
Thank you very much Frank!
Heartfelt thanks to all who made Is Was so special, it's been wonderful. Today was the last day, but I believe Mr Kenny will keep a couple unsold for the Winter Show at the gallery. I'll now stop spamming you all quite so often 😆 míle buíochas x #deankelly #art #exhibition
You're very kind David, thanks for going to the effort! Unfortunately mine finishes in the same place, albeit with alternative words.
Anybody have a more recent rendering of the Duino Elegies than the two copies I have? Looking for the end of the Ninth Elegy, only... apparently a fragment was added. Help! Twitter used to be great for this, would appreciate it. English or German fine, 80s+. #Rilke #DuinoElegies
Dean Kelly and John Behan RHA at Is Was, Kelly's current exhibition at the Kenny Gallery, Galway. Lovely to welcome John today, always such a kind support, personally and to a generation of Irish artists. #deankelly #art #exhibition #iswas #galway

Here's to the next 25 years, time flies when you're having fun, to my love ♥️ 4/11/25
At final rally of the Presidential campaign in Salthill tonight. A rare and genuine feeling in the air, hope.
Felt like the beginning of a movement, one rooted in care and courage. So heartening to see the left coming together.
#VoteCatherineConnolly tomorrow for the Republic we aspire to be.
Thanks to Judy Murphy and Joe O'Shaughnessy for piece in this week's Connacht Tribune. Lord save us! In the paper, or read online (truncated) : connachttribune.ie/capturing-ch...

No bother John, no harm sure! Hope all well.
Delighted ‘Is Was’ included in the Autumn edition of Irish Arts Review. Many thanks Paula, Yvonne and all the team for the feature 🙏 "tensions between past and present, using a visual language to suggest the quiet transformations of place", something like that! From 24 Oct, Kenny Gallery, Galway.
Nice to read at Skylight 47's Heritage Week event in Galway yesterday. Lovely to see/meet Aideen Henry, Daragh Hoey and Geraldine Mills, a privilege to be in the archaeology with them - Hall of the Red Earl, a fascinating venue! Thanks to Hazel Kelly for the photograph. #poetry #heritageweek #galway

Oasis 'home' in Ireland this weekend. Half the world away, or half a life ago anyhow, I was making my Massive Heads for Chris Evans. Late 90s - what times!
