Season is delighted to present La frontera by Richard McWhannell. The show develops out of two visits made by the artist to the 'borderlands' that span Mexico in the south and New Mexico and Texas in the north.
During the first trip, made in 2017 in the company of his wife, Donogh, and daughter, Ruth, McWhannell met Roberto Salas, a fellow artist from El Paso, Texas, who became his guide for the second trip, made in 2019. The paintings in La frontera represent a poetic travelogue, documenting sights, evoking stories, and gesturing towards the manifold forces—geological, cultural, political, and economic—that have shaped the terrain. The exhibition runs from 30 October to 29 November 2025. There will be a celebration from 6 to 8pm on Thursday 6 November, one week into the show. All are welcome.
