Amelia Stein Sold at Auction Prices

b. 1958 -

Elected a member of the RHA in 2004, Aosdána in 2006, the Photographer Amelia Stein’s black and white photographs pursue character and the constituent elements that create them. Absence and the passage of time is a recurring theme .Described as a portrait photographer, her work is not confined to the figure or facial studies but the wider meaning of portraiture, from the conventional face to the breath of wider open landscapes, from small intimate details to the landscape on the grand scale . Though meticulously composed in the camera her practice gives equal emphasis to the subtleties of the darkroom and meticulous attention to detail in printing. Work is represented in the collections of The National Gallery of Ireland, IMMA , the Arts Council of Ireland and have been on view in solo and group shows in both Public and Private venues to the present day. Formerly as a performing arts photographer, Stein worked in Theatre and Opera in Ireland 1979-2000. Currently she divides her time between Dublin and North Mayo .

    Est: €1,000 - €1,500

    Amelia Stein RHA (b.1958) PALM HOUSE SERIES X, 2000 photograph on Ilford Paper (no. 1 from an edition of 20) signed on reverse on Rubicon Gallery exhibition label 48 by 48cm., 19 by 19in. Rubicon Gallery, Dublin; Private collection 'The Palm House', Rubicon Gallery, Dublin, 2001 This series of 'Palm House' photographs were based on Stein's residency in the Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin in 2001. They capture the time period prior to restoration work on the building which was carried out two years later. In these images Stein captures the raw and worn fabric of the edifice and its relationship with its subjects, the plants. These works formed the basis of her solo exhibition in the Rubicon Gallery in 2001. The themes of time, degeneration and loss frequently return as dominant subjects in Stein's work. She followed this 'Palm House' exhibition with 'Memory + Loss' in 2002 which explored the lives of her late parents. In 2003 the RHA elected Stein a member of the Academy. She is the first photographer to have achieved this status in Ireland.
