Elizabeth Magill (born 1959 in Ontario, Canada) is an Irish painter. She studied at the Belfast College of Art and the Slade School of Fine Art, and now lives and works in London. Biography Magill grew up in Northern Ireland but lives and works in London. She began exhibiting in the mid-1980s. She is a painter of prodigious versatility and inventiveness whose work has always drawn from a wide range of visual sources. While she has often integrated photographic materials and processes into her painting, in a number of novel ways, and has recently made an excursion into video, her primary fidelity has been to the medium of painting, in all its bewildering variety. Over the past few years her typically idiosyncratic revisioning of the tradition of the romantic sublime has resulted in a series of hauntingly distressed paintings of the landscape. Her first major solo exhibition was at the Arnolfini Gallery, Bristol, in 1990. In the same year she was included in the seminal 'British Art Show', which first introduced many of the most prominent younger British artists to a wider public. She has had one-person exhibitions at various venues in Ireland, Britain, Germany, France and Spain, including Southampton City Art Gallery in 1998; Kerlin Gallery in 1999; Wilkinson Gallery London in 2002, 2008; Greenberg Van Doren Gallery in New York, the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery Dublin in 2003 and the Ikon Gallery, Birmingham; Baltic, Gateshead and Milton Keynes Gallery in 2004. She has held fellowships at the Tate Gallery, Liverpool and Saarlandisches Kunstlerhaus, Saarbrücken, Germany. Selected group exhibitions include 'Places in Mind', (with Adam Chodzko and Stan Douglas), Ormeau Baths Gallery, Belfast 2000, and 'Premio Michetti 2000' at Fondazione Michetti, Italy. ‘Headland’ was a major solo exhibition by Magill in Ireland (2017-18) which was curated and toured by Limerick City Gallery of Art in partnership with the RHA, Dublin, and the Ulster Museum, Belfast, and supported through the Arts Council of Ireland’s Touring and Dissemination of Work Scheme. The exhibition launched at LCGA on 8 September 2017, with an introduction by Dr. Barbara Dawson, Director of the Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin. It was subsequently presented at the RHA from 18 January 2018 and the Ulster Museum from May 2018 onward. Magill is represented in many public and private collections worldwide including those of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, the Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin the Arts Council of
