Patrick Hickey
Born in India, Hickey lived in Ireland from 1948 onwards. He studied architecture at UCD (graduating in 1954), and later etching and lithography at Scuola del Libro, Urbino, Italy. He exhibited at the IELA in the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, and held numerous solo exhibitions at the Dawson Gallery. A master printmaker, he founded the Graphic Studio Dublin in 1961, and his painting technique developed out of his printmaking methods. "In his painting, he has achieved the phenomenon of the true painter in imposing his style on the landscape. There are quite definite types of countryside, forestry plantations, sheer sides of mountains, which are identifiable as 'Patrick Hickey'" (Tony Hickey, The Irish Imagination 1959-1971, Municipal Gallery of Modern Art, Dublin, 1971, p.7). He died in Dublin in October 1998. www.whytes.ie
