Gardaí press charges against a man for a poster on the gates of Iranian embassy
Morteza Najafi wedged the anti-Khamenei poster by the railings during a peaceful protest in Blackrock, late last month.
"The two top squares are Parnell Square and Mountjoy Square. The three bottom ones are St Stephen’s Green, Merrion Square and Fitzwilliam Square. The fish in the river are mullet."
This piece is called Squares: North and South, Dublin. The two top squares are Parnell Square and Mountjoy Square. The three bottom ones are St Stephen’s Green, Merrion Square and Fitzwilliam Square. The fish in the river are mullet.
I was born and educated in Dublin, before moving to Mayo and, later, Wexford. I’ve been making low editions of hand-burnished linocuts since 1990. In 2012, I began painting in egg tempera, in the Giotto manner, and this gentle medium compliments my lino printing. I’ve been a full-time professional artist since 2009. I travel and rent studios in Germany, the UK, and France.
