A Walking Platform Across a Mountainscape in Slieve Blooms.

In view of the theme for National Heritage Week 2025, Exploring our foundations, we invited the artist David Fox to reflect on a recent body of work in that context. This beautiful oil painting, which measures 122x92cm, features a walking platform across a mountainscape in Slieve Blooms.

As a result, the artist wrote a short essay which will be published on our website on Saturday 16 August. It will also be available at the gallery where visitors will be able to admire this work alongside other recent paintings by the artist. Visitors will also be able to see our current group show on the theme of Art Deco: ‘Out of Lines’ which also features a new work by the artist.

On Thursday 21 August 2025, a special event will take place at the gallery at 6:30pm. The artist David Fox will talk about this painting and also about his practice in general. He will be joined by some of our represented artists such as Yanny Petters, Annika Berglund and Miriam McConnon, who will also talk about their work in the current show 'Out of Lines'. This is a free event and no booking is needed but we would love it if you were to contact us to confirm your attendance by email at info@oliviercornetgallery.com.
