	Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery of Modern Art - Hugh Lane Gallery - Art
		The origins of the Lane Collection go back to Sir Hugh Lane (1975- 1915), a successful Co. Cork-born art dealer who personally collected a large number of important European art works, including the eight outstanding paintings by the French Impressionists.
		A temporary gallery was opened in Harcourt Street in 1908 to house the Lane Collection but the inability of Dublin Corporation to settle quickly the question of a permanent home led Lane in 1913 to write a will bequeathing the pictures to London.
		Tragically, Sir Hugh was lost with the sinking of the Lusitania in May 1915 and a long dispute over his will arose between the Irish and British governments.

	Francis Bacon in Dublin
		The acquisition of this treasure trove of Bacon's source materials - books, photographs, letters, as well as brushes, paint pots and other tools of the painter's trade - is a coup for the gallery which intends to reconstruct the studio as a permanent exhibit.
		While the curators are busy cataloguing the collection, the gallery is celebrating with a major retrospective of Bacon's work.
		It was a drugged, sodden ending to a life shared at the edge - and it draws from Bacon one of his most disciplined, contained works - as if the greater the emotion, the greater the pain, the greater the anguish, then the greater the art that responds.

		Roche, who lives in Cork, began with a series of drawings inspired by visits to a nearby beach and developed her ideas into a series of small bronze sculptures, cast from seaweed encased in wax, and a series of graphic drawings on tracing paper.
