Pat Moylan, Chairman of the Arts Council said "The Council is deeply saddened at the passing of Louis Le Brocquy. Louis was one of the most important visual artists that Ireland has produced. At a time when Ireland was relatively provincial in its visual arts tradition, Le Brocquy was deeply aware of international practice. This was demonstrated when he represented his country at the Venice Biennale in 1956 with the work ‘A Family’, which subsequently won a major prize. The development of le Brocquy’s work towards an ‘Irish modernism’ allowed Irish artists to think beyond the traditional, academic approach which had been dominant in Ireland. In this way, contemporary Irish visual artists today owe a great deal to the legacy of Louis Le Brocquy. We offer our sympathies to his wife Anne Madden Le Brocquy and his two sons, Pierre and Alexis."
