There’s a fine painter–Liam Daly–who moved to Kansas City from Dublin several years ago, I think by taking a wrong turn at Minneapolis. Anyway he’s here now, and mostly paints images of Ireland rather than of the Midwest–which is as it should be. The works are quite bold in palette and execution. I’ll be helping him hang a show next week, not in my gallery but at a space in The Crossroads District. Already I can sense that the show will be grand.
