Anne Madden is one of Ireland's foremost painters to have emerged since the 1950s. Of Irish and Anglo-Chilean origin, she spent her first years in Chile before coming to Ireland and England with her parents. In 1958 she moved to the south of France, where she exhibited internationally in both solo and group exhibitions, including Rosc '84 in Ireland and at the Paris Biennale where she represented Ireland. This lavish and unique monograph, published to accompany the in-depth retrospective exhibition at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in summer 2007, covers Anne Madden's entire artistic career from the 1950s to the present. It features some of her most important paintings: Self Portrait, 1950; her early series of works inspired by the landscape of the Burren, such as Clare Land, 1967; and her series of Megaliths, Monoliths and Doorways, which are, in the late art critic Dorothy Walker's words, like 'giant forms emerging from the darkness of pre-history'. With a foreword by Enrique Juncosa, DirecScala Publishers Staff is the author of 'Anne Madden', published 2008 under ISBN 9781857595017 and ISBN 1857595017.
