Alan Counihan
Alan Counihan's practice engages with the human relationship to nature and to the landscape, with how the later is inhabited, remembered, imagined. He has had several solo exhibitions of studio based work over the years and has been recipient of many grants and awards including the Pollock-Krasner Award.
In 2012 he published “Townlands: a habitation” a creative exploration of an Irish rural landscape and its communities. Essays from his years in the Blasket Islands on Ireland’s Atlantic coast were recently published in Archipelago 8 (2013).
