Now open at IMMA, a new exhibition by Lennon entitled Porous Plane, presents a range of work from the 1970s to the present which includes 1/3/92B, 1992, from the IMMA Collection and Folded/Unfolded MM 1972 (for Fiona), 2017, shown originally in Lennons first solo exhibition at the Project Arts Centre, Dublin in 1972 and remade especially for the IMMA Galleries as part of this exhibition. Lennons exhibition is part of a curatorial approach that explores works in the IMMA Collection where artists are invited to place their early work among their current practice - Then and Now. Lennons art began in the 1970s with the Folded/Unfolded paintings and has continued to explore innovative forms of painting, most recently, AL13s, Denier7s, Autochthones and the on-going Arbitrary Colour Collections. The Folded/Unfolded paintings first appeared in Lennon`s first solo exhibition at the Project Arts Centre, Dublin in 1972
