Clement McAleer was born in 1949 in Co. Tyrone, Northern Ireland. He studied Fine Art at Canterbury College of Art from 1972 to 1975 and then at the Royal College of Art, in London where in 1978 he was awarded the J. Andrew Lloyd prize for Landscape Painting. He subsequently moved to Liverpool where he and lived and worked for over twenty years, although during this time he returned to Ireland on a regular basis. In 1981 he was honoured with an award from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and in the same year he completed a mural commission for the Royal Liverpool Hospital. He returned to Belfast in 2003 and was elected an Associate of the Royal Ulster Academy in 2006 and became a full member in 2009.

Having exhibited extensively in Dublin, Belfast, London and abroad his work has steadily entered public and corporate collections including those of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, the Ulster Museum, the Walker Art Gallery, the Arts Council of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and  the European Parliament. 
The focus of McAleer’s landscape paintings isn't the particularities of place, but rather the restless, shifting aspects of nature where cloud or water, land or sea transforms themselves atmospherically, one into another and the Irish coast is a constant source of inspiration for him. Travels in Europe have inspired a new body of work particularly in the series of railway paintings from Italy, Germany and the Netherlands, where a stronger emphasis on structure again enters his work.
