Alice Hanratty

Alice Hanratty (born 1939[1]) is an Irish artist who specialises in printmaking with a preference for etching.

She was born in Dublin and studied painting and printmaking at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin, and the Hornsey College of Art, London. She spent some time working in East Africa in the late 1960s which inevitably has had influence on her work. She is a member of the Aosdána affiliation of Irish artists[2] and of its governing body, the Toscaireacht.[3]

As well as exhibiting work in major Irish group shows, she has represented Ireland at exhibitions such as the International Impact Exhibition, Kyoto in 1989; the Works on Paper Group Exhibition at the Armory, New York in 1992; the London Original Print Fair, Royal Academy of Arts, in 1995; the International Biennale of Print, Beograd in 1998; and the Estampe International Print Exchange, Paris, in 2001.[2] Her work has also been included in group shows at home and abroad, including ‘The Delighted Eye’ in London (1979); ‘Irish Artists’ in Chicago (1980); ‘Irish Women Artists from the Eighteenth Century to the Present Day’ in Dublin (1987); ‘International Impact Exhibition’ in Kyoto (1989); ‘London Original Print Fair’ at the Royal Academy of Arts (1995); and the Estampe International Print Exchange’ in Paris (2001).[4]

gollark: You do not need it to be GOOD, in many cases. You need it for signalling.
gollark: They are government-funded. They just also charge students.
gollark: ... no?
gollark: Actually, over here at least, degrees lead to higher total earnings.
gollark: gollark Today at 12:53Logic puzzle:You are trapped in a labyrinth. There are some doors. One of them leads out. One of them leads into a lethal cryoapiary.There are two gollarks in front of the doors. One gollark speaks the truth, one gollark always lies. You suddenly notice other gollarks appearing. The other gollark tells the truth or lies at random. The other² gollark is truthful iff your question does not refer to itself or other gollarks. The other³ gollark calls in orbital laser strikes against those it perceives as asking tricky questions. The other⁴ gollark is truthful iff it predicts (with 99.6% historical accuracy) that you will consider it (one of) the falsehood-telling gollark(s). A subset of the gollarks will say "bee" and "apioform" instead of "true" or "false", but you do not know which or which words "bee" and "apioform" correspond to. The other⁴ gollark just tells you the first bit of the SHA256 hash of your question in UTF-8. Another gollark appears to be randomly materializing doors. The other⁵ gollark will cooperate with you iff you cooperate with CooperateBot/angel. Yet another gollark will tell the truth iff you know what iff means. The final gollark appears to be fiddling with the orbital mind control laser making you know this.What do you do?
