B. Dublin 1954. Although based primarily in Ireland throughout her career, Eithne Jordan has lived for extended periods in London, Berlin and since the mid 90s in the Languedoc region of the South of France. Since her first visit to rural France in the late 80s, she has engaged increasingly with the place itself as the subject of her work. She first used the landscape as a means to focus on that tradition of painting, taking on all of the formal challenges that it presents. In her recent shift to industrial and urban environments this is an even more central concern.

| City
Eithne Jordan's exhibition will include works recently shown at the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris along with new works. In these new paintings her exploration of landscape inhabited by the forms of the contemporary world shifts to a study of the urban environment. The city with its metro stations and streets, cars and road signs, has become her subject. The source of light, which has always fascinated the artist, has changed from the natural to the artificial. A body of paintings has emerged that has a different spatial structure and is much darker in tone. The absence of the human figure creates an atmosphere of stillness and emptiness.
