A rising young Irish artist returns for her second solo exhibit in New York beginning today. "Sinéad Ní Mhaonaigh: New Paintings" is showing at the Pink Room/Rose Burlingham, 2 West 123rd St., Manhattan, through Sept. 30.
The gallery is open Sunday 12-5 or by appointment: 646-229-0998. Ní Mhaonaigh's paintings are, according to art critic Aidan Dunne, "poised between austerity and luxuriance. Structurally spare and concise, featuring simplified geometric motifs, her surfaces are luscious, consisting of thick coats of rich oil pigment, beautifully textured."
