Patrick John Walshe (born November 1952) is an Irish painter.
Walshe was born in Ennis in the West of Ireland, Walshe was educated at the Benedictine Abbey of Glenstal from 1964 to 1970. He then attended Trinity College, Dublin, 1970-74 where he studied for an Honours degree in business. He was president of the Art Soc from 1971 to 1974. He had his first exhibition at the Tom Caldwell Gallery on Baggot Street, Dublin with fellow artist Tim Booth, late of Dr. Strangely Strange in 1976. In 1982 he moved to New York and lived in a loft in Brooklyn and while working as a chef at the Water Club he was part of the East Village art scene of the time, exhibiting at the Beuhlahland Gallery, on Avenue A, owned by Susan Hannaford-Rose, in 1984. From there Walshe moved to Los Angeles in 1986, again working as a chef to support his painting. He exhibited widely, with Renata Beuhler in North Wells Street in Chicago 91989 and 1990)and numerous Los Angeles galleries (John Thomas, Wilshire Tower Gallery and Fullerton County Museum). In 1992 Walshe left the U.S. and spent two years travelling and painting across Asia and Africa before settling back in Ireland with his family. He now lives and paints in County Wicklow and exhibits regularly in both Britain and Ireland. He is in many collections throughout the world, but because of his early restlessness he remains somewhat of an outsider in the art world.
Since 2004, Walshe has developed a technique of painting on canvas overlaid with silver leaf in order to give a three-dimensional quality to his images. He has exhibited these paintings in Russborough House, courtesy of the Sir Alfred Beit Foundation in 2009 and 2010, The Orangery, Holland Park, London 2010 and most importantly in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin in April 2012. Exhibition at Art Hub, Abu Dhabi, June 2010. www.arthub.ae
Roy Fox Lichtenstein was an American pop artist. During the 1960's, along with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and James Rosenquist, he became a leading figure in the new art movement. His work defined the premise of pop art through parody. Inspired by the comic strip, Lichtenstein produced precise compositions that documented while they parodied, often in a tongue-in-cheek manner. His work was influenced by popular advertising and the comic book style. His artwork was considered to be "disruptive". Lichtenstein described pop art as "not 'American' painting but actually industrial painting". His paintings were exhibited at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York City.

Charles Gaines is an American visual artist, whose work interrogates the discourse of aesthetics, politics, and philosophy. Taking the form of drawings, photographic series and video installations, the work consistently involves the use of systems, predominantly in the form of the grid, often in combination with photography. His work is rooted in conceptual art – in dialogue with artists such as Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner and Mel Bochner – and Gaines is committed to its tenets of engaging cognition and language. As one of the only African-American conceptual artists working in the 1970s, a time when political expressionism was a prevailing concern among African-American artists, Gaines was an outlier in his pursuit of abstraction and non-didactic approach to race and politics. There is a strong musical thread running through much of Gaines' work, evident in his repeated use of musical scores as well in his engagement with the idea of indeterminacy, as similar to John Cage and Sol LeWitt. He lives in Los Angeles, California.
