This books features works by 30 contemporary Irish artists. Abstraction, the figure, and the landscape all are long-established pre-occupations in western art, and all have been inventively addressed by the artists in this collection. Furthermore, far from being fixed artistic genres, each of these concerns is being continually reshaped, even reinvented in the light of contemporary issues. Artists inevitably engage with the questions relevant to the society in which they live, and society, like art, is always a work in progress.
