SUMMARY:The Museum of Modern Comedy in Art - A Proposal
DESCRIPTION:The Project Arts Centre will be showcasing their first exhibition from their new Curator\, Lívia Páldi\, opening on Thursday 31 August between 5.30-7.30pm. \nThe Museum of Modern Comedy in Art (MoMCo) – A Proposal is either an artwork in the guise of a speculative museum or a museum dressed up as a contemporary installation. Which of the above it will be\, is yet to be seen. \nMoMCo is dedicated to highlighting\, researching and mediating the hidden\, comedic aspects of modern and contemporary art. The classical notion of reckless\, avant-garde bravado has been largely debunked\, not least for its implicit sexism and open Eurocentrism. But the underlying comedic mechanisms deserve re-examination. \nFor this first exhibition\, MoMCo is presented in the form of a tentative historical chart and a series of clay figurines depicting key-moments in bona fide art history. MoMCo is also proud to present Resuscitations\, its first temporary exhibition of contemporary art\, comprising video works by Agnieszka Polska (PL)\, Roee Rosen (IL)\, Sally O’Reilly (UK)\, Gernot Wieland (D)\, and Olav Westphalen (D/US). \n  \nOlav Westphalen is a German-American artist whose work frequently takes the form of games\, entertainment or cartoons. He exposes the cultural blind spots and hypocrisies of the social and cultural contexts he inhabits. He plays both sides of the high-low divide\, producing mass-media comedy and cartoons while showing in museums and galleries such as The Whitney Museum\, ICA London\, The Swiss Institute NY\, Moderna Museet\, Stockholm\, Brandenburgischer Kunstverein\, Museum Fridericianum. He lives and works in Stockholm. \n  \nThe Museum of Modern Comedy – A Proposal (MoMCo) runs at Project Arts Centre from 1 September to 21 October 2017.

SUMMARY:Review: Soundcheck at The Science Gallery
DESCRIPTION:When I walk into the Soundcheck exhibition at Trinity’s Science Gallery\, a wall-sized blackboard is scribbled with chalk where visitors are asked to write their favourite sounds. “My children’s laughter\,” writes one person; “Lana Del Rain\,” quips another. Soundcheck continues this invitation to personal interaction throughout the exhibition; all lies dormant until some curious individual speaks into the microphone in “Chit Chat\,” an installation that translates the slightest vocalization into birdsong\, and a muttered “hello” becomes a round of morning chirps. In “Baloica\,” a set of swings are fixed to a Kinect motion-sensor which responds to each oscillation with a melodic note\, and the higher you swing the more complex the sounds become\, turning an everyday activity into an exercise in creative experimentation. Brenda Hutchinson’s “Giant Musical Box” challenges the concept of what sounds “good\,” having tuned the brass bars to quarter tones\, and allows those with zero musical training to strike a pleasant chord.  \n \n Upstairs\, there is a kitchen stocked with utensils rigged to transform any bang or tap to musical percussion: a ceramic bowl becomes a steel drum\, stirring beans in a pan becomes the audible equivalent to neon-lit rain. In “Theremin Tapestry\,” historical traditions of weaving are combined with theremin technology to create a piece of art that answers motion with song. Strictly untouchable\, this installation demands restraint and a reflection on the relationship between the senses. Although each installation is spitefully unique in its own way\, one commonality shared with all is challenging ideas of what music is or can be. “Star Struck” presents a pin-ball machine as a musical instrument\, and features a four-person multiplayer play field framed by bass guitars. The game features targets that produce stochastic compositions – randomly generated scores created by controlling an array of audio effects – that integrate pinball gaming into compositional construction. Not all installations include teamwork\, however. “Ashes to Ashes” is a nightmare soundscape carved from virtual uranium instruments\, crowding into the listener’s ears through headphones. Evoking nuclear fallout and stars’ theatrical self-destruction\, this installation is a journey from bleak\, cavernous echoes to high-pitched swoons tipping into hysteria. This might be what you hear when you put your ear to a black hole\, or if you woke to see the moon crashing down through the night.  \n Unity\, isolation; sound can do both\, whether it’s drawing disparate groups together to make noise in a kitchen or needling in on the individual. What you take from Soundcheck depends entirely on who else is there – cacophony if it’s busy\, sparsely-punctuated silence if it’s quiet. Either  will make you wonder at these peculiar vibrations we call sound\, and at the possibilities that sprout from music’s ongoing love-affair with technology. \n \nwords: John Vaughan.

SUMMARY:Green Sleeves
DESCRIPTION:Green Sleeves charts The Irish Printed Record Cover from 1955 to the present day. Our renewed love of vinyl continues to surge and this marks a long overdue look at the Irish-printed album cover. Yes\, you’ll spot U2’s Boy in there but there’s a wealth of reminders of the eclectic sounds\, genres and designs which emanate from this isle. There should also be a few guffaws at some cheesy band poses. (until October 1st)

SUMMARY:ROSC 50\, 1967 – 2017
DESCRIPTION:To mark the 50th anniversary of the first ROSC exhibition in Ireland\, IMMA (The Irish Museum of Modern Art) and NIVAL (The National Visual Art Library) will present a wide-ranging archival exhibition\, including catalogues\, photographs\, news footage\, and exhibition reviews and reports\, alongside first-person accounts and innovative reflections by Irish artists. The ROSC exhibitions were Ireland’s first exposure to international contemporary art\, before IMMA was established\, offering the Irish public a chance to engage with artists like Cy Twombly\, Mark Rothko and Laurie Anderson. Often controversial\, the once-every-four-years ROSC exhibitions were pivotal in influencing a generation of Irish artists and this exhibition offers a chance to reflect on their legacy.

SUMMARY:Di Verse
DESCRIPTION:“I have been experiencing a lot lately\, human behaviour that reflects a sentiment of fear\, hate and control towards diversity. It has shocked me. It has effected me so much so that I have been forced to question everything we stand for as a species. \nThis is because\, in my time here I have only ever experienced diversity as a strength. In fact I have sought her out\, and when I have encountered her I have grown. Diversity is knowledge\, evolution and choice. \nWhen I talk about diversity I don’t mean that of ethnicity. I am referring to the diversity of human experience had by each of us. As much as we are all the same beings\, we have each had our own unique conditioning and cumulation of experience. 7 Billion of us may be the same\, but we are all different. \nWhen reflecting on the images I have captured I observe vast differences at certain stages of my evolution through the medium. I have embraced these difference by letting the work speak to me with no over baring curation.” – Mark William Logan \nMark William Logan is a Dublin born photographer who spent the last three years travelling North America\, Ecuador\, Peru\, The Amazon & Hawaii. With a background in music and experiential he has found his Love in 35mm film. He loves most the intention the medium brings and strives to force people to ask questions through his work. \nExhibition runs July 19-26 in the Tara Building

SUMMARY:Hot Press: Covers exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Hot Press is 40! While its impact and influence on youth culture in particular has waned considerably in this century\, there is no denying it’s played its part in our emergence as a multi-national and open society. The fact it’s still around is testimony to its shrewd management by the Stokes clan. This is a brilliant look back at its evolution. There is a U2 wall and all the obvious heavy hitters from the rock scene but many of the thrills lie in the one-off cover stars\, our national controversies or the bizarre sight of Radio One DJ Ronan Collins in a satirical cover rip-off of The Sunday World back in 1984.

SUMMARY:Mark Redden: For All Intents and Porpoises
DESCRIPTION:Born in Dublin in 1979\, Mark Redden graduated from the Crawford College of Art\, winning several awards for his work\, which has been described by Aidan Dunne (Irish Times Art Critic) is an artist with “an ambitious sense of engagement. Like Francesco Clemente\, he wants his all encompassing vision to have a sweeping\, mystical breadth.” \nHe always knew he wanted to be an artist. Following school he expanded his cultural education\, which was wide-ranging and largely self-taught. He worked briefly in advertising and later for a wooden boat-builder in a village in the west of Ireland. He has travelled to five continents and continues to travel in search of a broader knowledge of different places and cultures. \nHe has taken inspiration from poets\, philosophers\, scientists and writers. Although he acknowledges the influence of such artists as Anselm Kiefer\, Joseph Beuys\, Richard Deacon and Jimmy Durham\, Redden has created his own distinctive iconography in which each element is loaded with symbolism and meaning. \nThe artist takes a cyclical view of time and history\, and as a consequence\, a handful of over-arching themes appear regularly in his work. These repeating gestures are in a way a response to the repetitive system of human history. One that is apparently constantly changing yet bound to an eternal theme of birth\, growth and death. He seeks to understand our purpose here on Earth and our relationship with the celestial\, spiritual and physical nature of life. \nThis fascination with the world and his thirst for knowledge and understanding provokes the viewer to consider these bigger questions with him. He forms a narrative that defies any definitive interpretation yet aims to inspire far-ranging thoughts in the viewer. \nRuns until July 31st

SUMMARY:Atonal Supersound
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Tynan’s eye for idiosyncrasies and her ability to distil an essence from daily encounters lends her paintings a profundity that is interspersed with self-reflexive humour. Each painting captures a moment in which a feeling or mood prevails. In the making of these paintings\, Tynan proffers a world in which chance encounters and oddities are elevated through their representation. In recent work\, Tynan has referenced her painting practice as part of a routine and within Laughter in the Blood\, the artists own studio becomes the focus of analysis. In this painting the artist’s supplies – turpentine\, brushes and ink are laid out on a frugal looking table. A bundle of brushes with split hairs peak tentatively over a laptop. On the monitor a talking head\, subtitled in French\, speaks of introspection in a spell of melancholy shoegazing. To the right of the table\, near the skirting board\, a scrunched leaf of paper torn from a ring-bound notebook politely beseeches the studio occupants\, ‘please don’t unplug’. \n Together the paintings in Atonal Supersound converse with and often contradict one another. They exist as counter points reaffirming the idea that meaning is both deduced and created. \nIn Clarice Lispector’s mystical novel\, The passion according to G.H\, the protagonist becomes preoccupied with the interior of her own apartment and remains there for the duration of the story. In her rigorous questioning of every aspect of her immediate reality she begins to dissolve its solid materiality into an array of psychical absurdities. While much of Tynan’s paintings follow a similar tact of dissecting the seemingly mundane\, she also references the Brazilian writer directly in her painting\, Thick and Black Roots of the Stars\, in which Lispector’s words appear scrawled across a wall. In the painting\, grey skies loom over a church and its grounds but the focal point is the richly embellished wall. Across its cement surface\, alongside Lispector’s lines\, there are messages to missing family members\, initials in bubble font\, proclamations of eternal love and witty quips. On this graffitied wall\, marks made by many different hands are presented together in the composition. \nSuch a device harks toward the latent impulse within people to make a mark\, to give visual expression to a thought. This concept crops up time and again in Tynan’s paintings\, posing questions on the nature of institutionalised art production and on the divide between various forms of artistic expression. In her paintings\, which revel in the colour\, texture and surface possibilities of paint\, Tynan reflects on inconsistency and imbalance. Her paintings are often witty and playful but also inquisitive – imbued with their own revelatory purpose. Together the paintings in Atonal Supersound converse with and often contradict one another. They exist as counter points reaffirming the idea that meaning is both deduced and created. It is somewhere between these two activities that Tynan’s work gathers its momentum. \nKathy Tynan (b.1984) lives and works in Dublin. She graduated from the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) with a BA in Painting in 2008 and an MA also from NCAD (2010). Recent group exhibitions include Hands Laid On with Aileen Murphy\, Kevin Kavanagh\, Dublin (2016)\, There Are Little Kingdoms (2016)\, Mermaid Arts Centre\, Bray\, What Is And What Might Be\, Highlanes Gallery\, Drogheda (2015) and The Sky Is All Changed\, Hendrons Collider\, Dublin (2014). Tynan’s work is held in public collections including the Office of Public Works as well as private collections in Ireland and abroad.

SUMMARY:Shrine for girls
DESCRIPTION:Shrine for girls is the first solo exhibition in Ireland of New York artist Patricia Cronin and one of the critically acclaimed highlights of the 2015 Venice Biennale. The site specific installation remembers and pays tribute to different groups of exploited women from around the world. Through articles of clothing and with a focus on the ‘shrine’ as a space for contemplation and rituals of remembrance\, Cronin addresses violence against three specific groups of women\, from India\, Nigeria and Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries.

SUMMARY:Dragons of Eden
DESCRIPTION:Dragons of Eden is a double bill of energetic new work from Dublin-based artists Aoibheann Greenan and Terence Erraught at The MART gallery. Greenan presents The Eighth Seal\, an audio and sculptural installation that takes the ongoing struggle for female bodily autonomy in Ireland as its cue to construct an enormous vulva-spacecraft via a reinterpretation of the patriarchal myths surrounding  Sheela Na Gig carvings. Erraught’s two pieces in the exhibition\, Composition and Saturn (the world revolves around me) both attempt to disrupt our increasing desensitisation to global atrocities by merging digital technologies with primitive and ritualistic tropes.

SUMMARY:Plot and Piece
DESCRIPTION:“Behind the cotton wool is hidden a pattern … the whole world is a work of art” – Virginia Woolf in recognition of subtleties and interconnections at the heart of creative work. Plot and Piece is a group show with Pallas Studio artists\, Birgitta Horan and Sarah Farrell\, joined by Ciara Ward and Kerry O’Hare. The group members are linked by their NCAD peerage and common concerns. The show is a series of interconnections through both media and philosophical stance.

SUMMARY:Kevin Mooney - Seeing Things
DESCRIPTION:“In this latest body of work Mooney presents a series of paintings inspired by the ancient history of art in Ireland\, and more specifically the poetry of Seamus Heaney. The series takes its title from the Heaney poem “Seeing Things”. Making reference to his father’s passing\, Heaney’s work explores the thread of nature itself\, the senses laid bare; exposing the links between body\, spirit and heritage. In “Seeing Things” land becomes material\, exposed and reflexive\, the stuff of life coming to the surface and what has gone before momentarily intermingling with the now. It is here that much of Mooney’s work resides.” Curator\, Hilary Murray. (runs until June  24)

SUMMARY:Diana Copperwhite
DESCRIPTION:‘As is well known\, the word ‘orbit’ refers to a set route or path around a given point: we on earth orbit the sun\, just as the moon orbits us. Perhaps less known\, though\, is that the word is etymologically coupled with a distinct sense of the optical: from a fourteenth century French word for ‘eye socket’. Seeing\, in this understanding\, is always underscored by a sense of movement or voyaging: when we look at someone or something\, we simultaneously tread a track around it. Perhaps we come close to this object\, but we don’t get to touch it. \nI kept this double meaning in mind when thinking about Diana Copperwhite’s recent paintings. In this latest exhibition\, Crooked Orbit\, these are large and at least initially discordant works. It seems as though no colour has been left aside\, from lurid fuchsias and cobalt blues\, to neon yellow and swatches of minty green. Recurring throughout the canvases\, there is also a gradient effect achieved by loading the brush with different shades of paint; and this has a consequence of suggesting that these paintings have almost outgrown the tools of their creation\, those tools then being forced to convey\, through colour\, as much as they possibly can. Sometimes these gradient interventions are vertical and regular; at others\, they are less uniform\, cast in a halting semi-circle or upturned ‘u’. Throughout\, they act to create the impression of space within the paintings: in one\, a narrow swathe of grey\, pink and white\, has the look of an outstretched arm\, a slight sag in the middle where the elbow could be; in another\, a flat vertical plane of what looks like four gradient drags cuts a dint of architectural space. But\, even when working in unison\, each of these is just one gesture\, loaded to capacity and worked until it dissipates\, the paint run out or stopped short from further decline. Representation is at most\, never quite; cast as it is though a series of distinct marks\, the whole remains fragmentary\, gestured towards but never quite pinned down’. \nExtracted from Awkward Angle of Perception\, by Rebecca O’Dwyer. The full essay will be available at the gallery from June 1st. Crooked Orbit runs until July 1st. \nDiana Copperwhite (b. 1969\, Ireland) lives and works in Dublin and New York. Recent solo exhibitions include Driven by Distraction\, Royal Hibernian Academy\, Dublin (2016)\, Depend on the Morning Sun\, Thomas Jaeckal Gallery\, New York (2016) and A Million and One Things Under the Sun\, Kevin Kavanagh\, Dublin (2015). Selected group exhibitions include Last Picture Show w/Mary Heilmann\, Chris Ofili\, Danny Rolph\, Vanessa Jackson\, Elio Rodriguez\, Jill Levine\, Rebecca Smith\, Thomas Jaeckel Gallery\, New York (2017) and Virtú\, inc. Picasso\, Giacometti\, Henry Moore\, Elizabeth Magill and Sean Scully at the Hunt Museum\, Limerick\, Ireland (2017). Copperwhite’s work is held in numerous public and private collections including: the Irish Museum of Modern Art\, Arts Council of Ireland\, Limerick City Gallery of Art\, Office of Public Works\, Contemporary Irish Art Society\, Highlanes Municipal Art Gallery\, Mariehamn Stadbiblioteque\, Aland (Finland)\, Dublin Institute of Technology and The President of Ireland. \nRebecca O’ Dwyer is an Irish art writer\, critic\, and PhD candidate at National College of Art & Design\, Dublin. Her writing has been published in Paper Visual Art Journal\, Enclave Review\, Frieze\, Eyeline\, Fallow Media\, and the Visual Artists’ New Sheet\, amongst others\, and she has written catalogue texts for artists including Kathy Tynan\, Fergus Feehily and Barbara Knezevic.

SUMMARY:Superstruct
DESCRIPTION:Superstruct is a new exhibition of screenprints by Deirdre Breen. Her work “traverses the aesthetic interplay between art and design\, exploring the relationships between colour\, form and space. Experimental and intuitive\, her geometric compositions celebrate abstraction\, gradation and symmetry.” It’s also really nice to look at.
