O autorze

Éimear O'Connor received her PhD from UCD in 2008 for her thesis on Seán Keating. During this time she was a Humanities Institute of Ireland Scholar. She has since co-curated, with The Hunt Museum, Limerick, an exhibition of the artist's work titled «Seán Keating in Focus», for which she also wrote the catalogue. For the School of Art History and Cultural Policy, UCD, O'Connor has lectured on twentieth-century Irish art and on developments in European and North American modern art. She is presently Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at TRIARC - Irish Art Research Centre, Trinity College, Dublin. Her research interests include the life and work of little-known Irish women artists; the contextual development of Irish art and visual culture in the twentieth century; visual art and the Irish theatre; the representation of Ireland abroad - with an overarching emphasis on the development of identity in the twentieth century and its meaning in a now globalized world.
