Art Exhibition: “No Style”

May 26, 2010 - Posted by Astrid- 0 Comments

Astrid Adler is showing the Art-Exhibition: ”NO STYLE” during the Doonbeg Jazz Festival

The artist put this exhibition together to show the diversity of her work. Exploring abstract ancient symbols with charcoal and chalk on big tinted papers creating the look of stone, than, catapulting Celtic Art full colour into the 21st Century, where its construction takes completely different rules; you find Materialism still confused with Surrealism, Andre Breton still discussing with Salvador Dali if he is one, over Illustrations of local fairy tails to some study in pastels of the Stanley range, coming home to prints in Outsider Art “Scattery Island” and old favorite “The Weddingcross”.

Openings hours are: Friday 8-10pm, Saturday 2-5pm and Monday 2-3pm. Artist will be present. Venue: Strandcamping Doonbeg.

The Weddingcross

October 6, 2009 - Posted by Astrid- 0 Comments

weddingcrossThe upper part of the cross shows

The seasons to live through

At the bottom the bare winter sun

To the left the unwinding spring sun

At the top the powerful summer sun

To the right the dying off

autumn sun

The first image on the stem of the cross shows two persons holding hands and running over the summit of a mountain

The only way to go in the same time. Not one first and the other following

But if one lets go, both will fall.

The butterfly stands for the being in love, keep seeing the magic, the unknown in the other

Ying and Yang

The moon stands for intuition,

Sharing and similarity

On the contrary to the sun meaning individualism

Under the moon two people holding their heart

At their feet the Celtic tree of life

We grow quicker in honest, loving relationships

All of it resting on the Old Turtle

Who carries the world

Surrounded by the tamed dragon to

protect her
