Catherine Delaney (born 1965) is an Irish artist, working in the disciplines of sculpture, installation art and photography. She was elected as a member of Ireland's academy or affiliation of artists, Aosdána and her work is held in multiple public collections.[1]

Early life and education

Catherine Delaney was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1965, one of five siblings. Her father was the artist Edward Delaney[2] and her mother was Nancy (née O'Brien).[3] Her father moved away in 1980, settling in the west of Ireland, and later starting a second family.[3] She pursued third level studies in Ireland's National College of Art and Design (NCAD), graduating in 1984.[1] She further studied sculpture in New Jersey, at the Johnson Atelier, and then from 1986 to 1988 on a scholarship at an arts academy in Munich, working on sculpture and photographic arts.[4]

Career and work

Dublin's Project Arts Centre hosted Delaney's first solo show, Rib by Rib, in 1994.[4] She also exhibited sculpture at the Grant Fine Arts gallery in County Down, where her father had previously had a sculpture show.[5] One major transient installation was Enclose, a roughly bridge-shaped structure at the Grennan Mill in County Kilkenny, supported by the local authority and Ireland's Arts Council after plans for a similar installation at the Ireland-Northern Ireland were placed on indefinite hold; the macquette of the sculpture was bought by Ireland's Office of Public Works.[6] Another was Inside-Outside in Baltinglass.[7] A large-scale permanent installation is the poured-metal Fill in Ballymun.[4]

Recognition

Delaney was elected to Ireland's academy or affiliation of artists, Aosdána, in 2008.[1] She has received support from the Arts Council, both before election to Aosdána,[8] and since election, including payment of the "cnuas".[9]
