Eileen Hogan

I was only able to go briefly to the opening of Eileen Hogan’s exhibition at Browse and Darby tonight.   I am familiar with some of the work, not least because her monumental paintings of beehives have been shown in the Summer Exhibition and in a previous exhibition at the Fleming Collection.   What I was particularly impressed by, both this evening and seeing the work before, was the painting of clothes in her wardrobe, called Self-portrait through wardrobe, which are a hybrid between a meditation on the meaning of clothes, their associations, and pure painting of fabric and colour.
