探花直播art of Turner prize nominee Jonathan O'Dea will be on exhibition for the next two weeks at Clare Hall as part of their series of spring events celebrating all things Irish.

Following the highly popular series of international themed events for Clare Hall's 40th anniversary, the college continues to celebrate its international connections, this time focusing on the art and culture of Ireland.

As well as the exhibition, there will be six events over the fortnight from dinner, dancing and music to lectures and film.

探花直播artwork on display will feature work from Jonathan O'Dea's 2006 solo exhibition of experimental paintings at London City Hall, which went on to receive nominations for the Turner Prize.

Jonathan's paintings try to reconcile two opposite environments, his current life in urban London and rural Castlebar in County Mayo where he was born. 探花直播abstract pictures present Jonathan's mixed personal experience of both places through surface texture and blended colours.
