However, he has rarely exhibited beyond Co. Mayo, and only ever in group shows. This is an opportunity to appropriately celebrate Gus Lynott\u2019s long artistic career in the region, in a large enough space to accommodate a significant selection from his extensive body of work. It is also an opportunity to creatively engage with audiences both local and further afield in an accessible and insightful way within the context of creativity and mental health, including a programme of guided exhibition tours and talks.<\/p>\n<p>The high-profile exhibition and symposium will explore both the artist himself, and also the mental health issues involved. There has been considerable commitment to the project, from established Mayo artist Ian Wieczorek; RHA Director Patrick T. Murphy; psychoanalyst and writer Dr. Medb Ruane; and art historian, curator and critical writer Catherine Marshall. It is envisaged that this initial exhibition will open the opportunity to bring Gus\u2019 work further afield, the recognised line-up of individuals and organisations involved and the quality of the proposal reinforcing Mayo\u2019s reputation as a centre of innovative creativity and ambition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":27361,"template":"","class_list":["post-27360","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Gus Lynott Exhibition - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The proposal is to fund a high-quality major retrospective exhibition of the paintings of Gus Lynott in 2023 in the Ballina Civic Offices, under the auspices of Ballina Arts Centre.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/gus-lynott-exhibition\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Gus Lynott Exhibition - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The proposal is to fund a high-quality major retrospective exhibition of the paintings of Gus Lynott in 2023 in the Ballina Civic Offices, under the auspices of Ballina Arts Centre.Gus Lynott, who lives with bipolar disorder, is an artist who, for over 30 years, has produced a remarkable body of work.
