About
Breon O'Casey (1928-2011) was the son of the Irish playright, Sean O'Casey, and a significant member of the St Ives school, whose leading figures included Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson and Bernard Leach. He began his working career as an assistant, initially to Denis Mitchell and later to Dame Barbara Hepworth in St. Ives, whilst establishing himself up as a painter, jeweller, weaver, and later, as a sculptor. We are delighted to have worked with the Estate of the artist, and its representative, Pangolin Gallery, to bring you this exhibition, which will also include some previously unseen work from the Estate that is not for sale. We are also thrilled to be showing work by his daughter, Duibhne Gough. Duibhne works out of her studio in St Ives and still uses her father's anvil.
