拍品专文

Painted in 2015, Crossroads Dancing is part of Rita Duffy's important Souvenir Shop project held in Dublin in 2016. Growing up in Belfast, the artist works in the figurative/narrative tradition, and her enquiries into questions of Irish identity, history and politics often stem from autobiographical experience. In the present work, Duffy is inspired by a vision of her parents dancing a four hand reel at their wedding in 1954.

We are very grateful to the artist for her assistance with cataloguing this lot.
