Public sculptor’s personal concerns

Return from the Horse Latitudes is a solo exhibition by sculptor, Don Cronin, in Triskel Christchurch, Cork.

Cronin is a graduate of CIT Crawford College of Art and Design, who punctuated his study with a degree in philosophy from UCC.

Preparing for his Crawford graduate show in 1994, he was commissioned to make a large-scale public work. Michael Mortell, then president of UCC, was perusing Cronin’s exhibit and asked him to reproduce one of his small, figurative sketch pieces for a large bronze for the grounds of the university.
