Larry Burke (Irish, b.1941 - d.2023) is known for his work in surrealism and imaginative compositions. While attending the National College of Ireland in the 1960s, he developed a passion for painting. His art often combines elements of the natural world with dreamlike, symbolic, and abstract forms. Burke’s work reflects a deep engagement with the subconscious and fantastical, marking him as a distinctive voice in contemporary art.
As a surrealist, Burke was influenced by iconic figures of the movement such as Salvador Dalí and René Magritte. His Irish heritage also plays a role in his artistic inspiration, as Irish mythology, folklore, and the natural landscape can often be found interwoven with surreal elements in his art. Themes of transformation, myth, and the metaphysical are recurring motifs in Burke's work. He uses a mix of acrylics and oils to create works, which are known for their rich textures and dynamic colour palette.
Larry Burke's work has been featured in various art shows and galleries that focus on contemporary surrealism. His paintings have captured the attention of collectors interested in art that challenges perception and blends the boundaries between the real and the fantastical.
