The Paradise
The Douglas Hyde
has become a gallery I regularly visit whilst never having been to a single
opening it has hosted. This is a compliment. There are many galleries I have
only ever been to for free wine of a Thursday. Here, the smaller space off the
main downstairs area is where I find less 'art world' artists and more
personable pieces. Not quite the current case as Andrew Vickery is described in
the blurb as someone who'se served on the Gallery's Board, but the work remains
charming. The room is propped with a curtained divide, row of chairs and a
small theatre set with various backgrounds of Vickery's scenic paintings that
act as backdrops. You have entered a miniature auditorium. You can sit and
consider the artist's talent or imagine little people walking across the
mountains or by rivers or you can even stand behind the set and make shadow
puppets.
