The Plinian Sponge, maybe?, featuring 16 of Ireland's leading, emerging artists reflects the diversity of contemporary painting in Ireland.
'Those things that happen at random or by chance are not done by art - as, for example, the picture of a horse foaming at the mouth, which was the results of the painters' having thrown a sponge at the picture in a fit of anger.' From De Disciplinis by Juan Luis Vives, on Roman philosopher Pliny the Elder.
