Donal O’Sullivan grew up in Renalagh in Dublin. He was prize-winner and college activist, O’Sullivan had been a mover and shaker in his early life becoming involved in protests against inadequate facilities at the National College of Art, which resulted in important reforms. He subsequently suffered from mental-health issues and frailties set in. He died by suicide in 1991, aged just 46. In subsequent decades, he was largely forgotten by the art world, his work left to gather dust. This book aims to create an awareness of his work as an artist.
