like to invite you, to have a look in my online shop:

http://shop.astridadler.com/index.php?route=common/home

You will find numbered limited edition prints of the paintings “Scattery Island” and “Wedding cross”. There is a range of postcards of my work with price reductions on sets of 10 and 50. Why not send an art-postcard for Xmas and Winters-Solstice.

There are felted scarfs and the fabulous felt-hats. All 100% wool, some with integrated lace.

For the children you find a full page illustrated book about fairies. As a thank you for sticking your head in the door, I have a present for you: There is a printable version of the celtic shaman art “Dragon” easy to download completely for free.

While you are there, you might want to have a look at all the updates on my official website as well. In the visual art section, you’ll find two films of work before the year 2000. There is a first entry into the projects with documentation from the “Search for the divine female project” and some quotes in the text section. Cata Isle Mime Theatre updates under mime with easy to download brochure, the Irish Times front page and more photos featuring the solo show premiere in Temple Bar.

I like to give a big thank you to my indoorwebdesigner from Artvaark-design, Kilrush, who made all this possible.

Art Exhibition: “No Style”

Astrid Adler is showing the Art-Exhibition: ”NO STYLE” during the Doonbeg Jazz Festival

The artist put this exhibition together to show the diversity of her work. Exploring abstract ancient symbols with charcoal and chalk on big tinted papers creating the look of stone, than, catapulting Celtic Art full colour into the 21st Century, where its construction takes completely different rules; you find Materialism still confused with Surrealism, Andre Breton still discussing with Salvador Dali if he is one, over Illustrations of local fairy tails to some study in pastels of the Stanley range, coming home to prints in Outsider Art “Scattery Island” and old favorite “The Weddingcross”.

Openings hours are: Friday 8-10pm, Saturday 2-5pm and Monday 2-3pm. Artist will be present. Venue: Strandcamping Doonbeg.




The Weddingcross

The upper part of the cross shows

The seasons to live through

At the bottom the bare winter sun

To the left the unwinding spring sun

At the top the powerful summer sun

To the right the dying off

autumn sun

The first image on the stem of the cross shows two persons holding hands and running over the summit of a mountain

The only way to go in the same time. Not one first and the other following

But if one lets go, both will fall.

The butterfly stands for the being in love, keep seeing the magic, the unknown in the other

Ying and Yang

The moon stands for intuition,

Sharing and similarity

On the contrary to the sun meaning individualism

Under the moon two people holding their heart

At their feet the Celtic tree of life

We grow quicker in honest, loving relationships

All of it resting on the Old Turtle

Who carries the world

Surrounded by the tamed dragon to

protect her
