Overview

Kerlin Gallery is delighted to announce An Open Room, an exhibition of William McKeown’s paintings and works on paper from the last decade of his life.

William McKeown’s art was driven by a lifelong pursuit of openness and a belief in the primacy of feeling. His paintings act like windows into the expansiveness beyond, offering  liberation from constraint, or quite simply a breath of air, and a point of connection with the world. In the twelve years since his untimely passing, the artist’s work has continued to resonate with new audiences worldwide, and the underlying quest of his work – for hope, freedom, connection, happiness, dancing, and oneness with nature – remains as vital as ever.
