Six Artists will participate in an exhibition entitled, 'On Common Ground'. This is the first
time they will be presenting their work as a group in the U.S. The artists held two prior exhibitions
in Ireland at the Olive Stack Gallery, in Listowel, County Kerry in July 2004, and at the Narrow
Space Gallery, Clonmel, County Tipperary in October 2004 .

Irish Artists Eoin de Leastar, Ella Kavanagh, Carmel O'Brien and Olive Stack with American Artists,
Chris Karpinski, Nancy Pinney, Joan Anderson and Robert Spellman first met in 2003 at the Cill Rialaig Project, an artists retreat in Ballinskelligs Ireland. The title of the show is not only a reference to the inspiring landscape of County Kerry, but is also a celebration of the friendships forged while in residence together. Included will be landscape, still life, and figure paintings of Ireland and abroad.
