About Artist Brian Manning

Brian Manning was born in Sandymount and currently resides in Bray, Co. Wicklow.
'Relections' the original by William Orpen is on display in the Hugh Lane gallery but I could not find even one image of it on the internet so my lacklustre version will have to suffice.
'Here Comes Tobor' is painted from a still in one of the Terminator movies. Stan Winston was the special effects creator of the robot. In the 1950's there was a tv show called Here Comes Tobor. Tobor is Robot backwards.
'Sillhou-rob-ette' and "Robot Love" are Daft Punk tributes.
'Da Ding Ding' is Mandarin for Big Bum. In the hip-hop video scene there is are video models/dancers. A sub-genre of these video-vixens as they are called cultivate their gluteous regions to develop their shake. Some resort to plastic implants. This is hilarious to me. This is the first in a series of paintings.
