SUMMARY:Geraldine Carton: Sisters\, Not Twins
DESCRIPTION:Dublin based artist Geraldine Carton has spent two years creating the works for this provocative and beautiful exhibition which celebrate women and their bodies. A series of figurative nude paintings concluding with a Wall of Boobs\, one hundred individual breast portraits. \n“A celebration of sisterhood and imperfection\, this show shines a light on a lived experience so often ignored in Irish society\, that of women. In the figurative paintings we see depictions of women as refreshingly multi-dimensional – expressing anger\, laughter\, exhaustion and mischief. These images tell stories and all are marked with the raw vulnerability of pink\, brown\, black and beige flesh.” \nNovember 7th – November 17th\, City Assembly House\, 58 William St S\, Dublin 2 \ngeraldinecarton.com \n@geraldinecarton

SUMMARY:The Holding Bones
DESCRIPTION:In an artist’s studio\, shadows talk\, objects come alive and she draws her very bones to overcome loss and celebrate love and the cycle of life. The Holding Bones lovingly recalls a host of characters – songsters\, storytellers and mischief makers.\n\n\n\nA new original piece from Púca for adults The Holding Bones is a fitting celebration of Samhain\, All Soul’s and The Day of the Dead. At this time of year\, they say\, the veil between our world and the next is at its thinnest. Once we would have set an extra place at the table\, left the door unlocked and lit a candle for each of our loved lost kin at Halloween and remembered our dearly departed throughout the month of November.\n\nSince 1997\, award winning Púca Puppets have been producing shows for adults and children from Ballymun to Bangkok\, in theatres\, canals and other ordinary and extraordinary places. In this new show\, Lawlor\, veteran performer from Púca for nearly 30 years\, counts her ancestors on her very bones and brings them back to life on stage. Set in her studio she draws upon her skills as a puppet maker and visual artist to enrich the tale she has to tell\, as funny as it is deeply moving. In paying playful homage to her ancestors Niamh Lawlor contemplates the purpose of life. Her life.\n\nVital theatrical storytelling invites you to meditate on family\, memory and rituals of grieving and how to embrace the bittersweet turns of the cycle of life.\n\nThis will be among the opening performances of a very personal yet universal show that has been crafted over several years\, assisted by support from The Arts Council\, dlr County Council\, South Dublin Live a South Dublin County Council Arts Office initiative\, Pavilion Studio and the Mermaid Arts Centre\, Draíocht and Civic Theatres. A work in progress was well received by test audiences who said:\n\n“Outstanding show\, brought back so many memories\, very emotional\, laughed and cried\, great”. \n“What a beautiful piece…it came from the heart and touched my heart… it hit all the senses”\n“Compelling…dancing with life and death and the shadows… Massive round of applause”\n“Poetry and Heart and Soul Food”\n\nWriter / Performer Niamh Lawlor\nDirector Emma Finegan\nProduction Manager\, Stage Management and Operation Aimee Crilly\nLighting Design Colin Doran\nProducer Púca Puppets\nCreated in collaboration with Dramaturg / Director Veronica Coburn; Artist Lian Bell; Sound / Music Composition Sinead Diskin\n\n\nThe Holding Bones Schedule 2024\nRehearsals Supported by Mermaid Arts Centre\, Fringe Lab and The Civic Theatre\n\n\nCivic Theatre Studio\, Tallaght\n30th Oct – 1st Nov 7.30 pm\n2nd Nov 1pm\nBooking: 01 462 7477 civictheatre.ie/\n\nMermaid Arts Centre\, Bray\n12th Nov 8pm\nBooking: 01 272 4030 mermaidartscentre.ie\n\nRiverbank Arts Centre\, Newbridge\n14th Nov 8pm\nBooking: 045 448 327 riverbank\n\nLexicon Studio (next to Cafe) Dún Laoghaire\n15th Nov 3.30 pm and 17th November 2.30 pm with after show discussion.\nBooking: eventbrite.ie The Holding Bones

SUMMARY:Mabe Fratti & Special Guests
DESCRIPTION:Mabe Fratti and her group put on one of the most incredible performances I had the honour of witnessing in 2023. Those frenzied pioneers at Foggy Notions have once again facilitated an evening for the Guatemalan cello wǔnderkind to deliver an absolutely spellbinding meditation\, echoing her work with Belafonte Sensacional and Claire Rousay\, and the experie-metal supergroup she spearheads\, Amor Muere. At times recalling the heady peaks post-rock overlords Godspeed You! Black Emperor\, which is no easy mission for a trio\, the performance made me a lifelong fan. I hope to see ye at this one. \nWords: Adhamh Ó Caoimh \nMabe Fratti is at Whelans\, Wexford St\, Dublin 2\, at 8pm on Tuesday 29th October \nwhelanslive.com

SUMMARY:A Musical Instrument - Justin Fitzpatrick
DESCRIPTION:Kerlin Gallery is justifiably excited to present A Musical Instrument\, the first solo exhibition in Ireland by Justin Fitzpatrick. \nThe title A Musical Instrument references a poem by Elizabeth Barrett Browning\, in which the pagan god Pan transforms a reed from the riverbed into a panpipe\, not knowing the pain caused by ‘Making a poet out of a man’. Music-playing\, and by extension\, all creative expression\, is positioned as something mediumistic\, involuntary\, and yet also a source of struggle. In Fitzpatrick’s paintings\, however\, it also appears to foster a kind of connectivity: spines become injected with musical notes; bodies seem to communicate through diagrammatic wave particles; tangled webs of veins\, nerves\, and arteries imply a porosity of self\, a consciousness that expands beyond our physical bodies. \nIn Fitzpatrick’s paintings\, figurative forms appear enmeshed within complex systems of processes\, sounds\, memories\, and ideas. Bodies morph into musical and mechanical apparatus\, while objects become animated or anthropomorphic. In one painting\, a human heart is swapped for a glass armonica\, an 18th-century instrument with melancholic tones once thought to induce madness. In another\, a masked figure plucks at the strings of a suspension bridge\, becoming a self-playing Aeolian harp. \nA Musical Instrument by Justin Fitzpatrick runs at the Kerlin Gallery from 25 Octobr to 23 November. Opening Reception: Thursday 24 October\, 6–8pm \nFeature Image: The Glass Armonica (Dying at my music)\, 2024\, oil on linen\, oak frame\, 183 x 143 cm framed

SUMMARY:A Reading of 'Syrian Gulag' By Jaber Baker
DESCRIPTION:Late last year\, an important book found its way into the world\, shining a light on one of the most oppressive prison regimes outside of North Korea. The ever enlightened Gutter Bookshop is hosting a free reading of this incredible tome. \n“An estimated 300\,000 people have been detained or have died in prison since the Syrian uprising broke out. Syrians can be arrested for liking a post on Facebook or for the political activities of a distant relative. They are imprisoned without trial\, and tortured and starved\, often to death. This book is the first to expose the worst prisons in the Middle East\, if not the world. Based on interviews with both the victims and perpetrators\, survivors memoirs and notes\, as well as leaked regime archives\, leaked photos\, and leaked intelligence files\, the book is a testament of the internment and imprisonment system in Syria under the rule of the Assads.” \nA reading of ‘Syrian Gulag’ by Jaber Baker takes place at The Gutter Bookshop\, Cow’s Lane\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 8\, D08 DK27 on Thursday 17th October\,  6.30pm – 7.30pm \ngutterbookshop.com

SUMMARY:Greg Byrne - The Boom Is Back
DESCRIPTION:In a ‘booming’ economy marked by widespread homelessness\, ‘The Boom is Back’ quietly captures the absurd exploitation facing ‘Generation Rent’ by playing with the increasingly impermanent concept of ‘home’ in contemporary Ireland. It challenges viewers to reconsider their own definitions of ‘home’ and to reflect on the societal value placed on an individual’s life. \nAward-winning filmmaker and photographer\, Greg Byrne\, presents his debut photography exhibition\, ‘The Boom is Back\,’ at The Bank at The Digital Hub on James’s Street\, Dublin 8. Running from September 27th to 29th 2024\, the exhibition comprises 8 large-scale photographs that depict a catalogue of increasingly bizarre items for auction\, found objects that Byrne discovered upon moving into his rented apartment. The show plays with the increasingly impermanent concept of ‘home’ in contemporary Ireland\, and questions the value our society places on an individual human life amid a housing and homeless emergency this domestic existence. \nByrne says\, “The essence of my series aims to challenge the very concept of ‘home’ in Ireland in 2024. In a nation boasting an €8.4 billion budget surplus\, the housing crisis and rising homelessness are not mere accidents of fate—they are the consequences of intentional policy decisions. Through these images\, I invite you to reflect: Can a space ever truly be yours when the presence of those who lived there before still lingers? Can a house feel like a home when the shadow of eviction is always looming? What does “home” mean when ownership is out of reach and security in renting is uncertain?” \nThe opening reception takes place on September 27th\, 2024\, from 7.00pm to 11.00pm\, featuring a drinks reception\, interactive installs and DJ till late. Admission to the exhibition is free\, with donations encouraged to support local housing charities which will be available via scannable QR codes found throughout the venue. \ngregbyrnephoto.com \nThe Bank at The Digital Hub James’s Street\, Dublin D08 C2PR

SUMMARY:Liliane Tomasko’s ‘Twofold’
DESCRIPTION:‘Twofold’\, a new solo exhibition by artist Liliane Tomasko at Kerlin Gallery\, presents five new large-scale diptychs alongside a new series of works on paper. Tomasko’s signature\, bold lyricism and decisive use of colour is emblazoned across twinned panels of aluminium or linen. This diptych format positions tone\, form and texture in dialogue back and forth across surfaces\, sparking new resonances and shaping our understanding of each panel in relation to its neighbour. These paintings must contend with two distinct voices – sometimes finding harmony\, elsewhere tension; forging complex relationships. \n“Larger shapes\, suggestive of figures\, come in and out of focus\, fragmenting and coming back together in the mind’s eye. Tomasko’s longstanding interest in mythologies is also apparent in this ‘Twofold’\, reflecting on narratives of equilibrium and justice\, such as the ancient concept of the weighing of the soul.” \nLiliane Tomasko’s ‘Twofold’ is at Kerlin Gallery\, Anne’s Lane\, Dublin 2 from September 13th – October 19th 2024

SUMMARY:Incantations - Aisling Conroy
DESCRIPTION:Laois/ Dublin based visual artist Aisling Conroy has launched a new solo exhibition in one of our favourite independent galleries. In this new body of work\, Conroy explores the metaphysical realm\, following the themes of sound\, vibration and cymatics. Working with paint\, print\, installation\, experimental film and sound\, Conroy coaxes the audience into a journey beyond the visible realm\, cusping on the unseen forces that shape our reality. \n“Throughout my practice I explore the idea of intention\, repetition and reincarnation\, drawing on influences from mystical and visionary art as well as sound and cymatics. My work combines texture\, colour and movement to create a heightened sense of introspection on the nature of existence. I create abstractions of the subconscious by using repeated motifs\, shapes\, colour and form in a very visceral way and always with an interest in spirituality and connecting to a higher consciousness”. \n@aisconroystudio \nAisling Conroy’s ‘Incantations’ runs at Tøn Gallery\, 25A Temple Lane South\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2\, D02 KV62 from 29th August- 21st September 2024.

SUMMARY:Milksop - Niamh Hannaford
DESCRIPTION:milksop is the residue of a collection of Niamh Hannaford‘s thoughts which cluster around time\, usage\, environment\, complicity\, and care. Mirroring the dominant extraction economy and the industrialization of resources\, she creates a temporal sculpture which requires cyclical maintenance and endures decay and loss. \nThis exhibition explores the value of labour and ageing when liaising with the god of commerce. Sitting beside – and on – layers of exploitative practices. She (her and her family) repetitiously manifest frozen offerings. Manufacturing a milky banshee. That pesky lady which haunts our dreams\, and pressures our screens\, full of serums and vital boosts. \nOpening Saturday\, August 24th 4pm Thereafter it runs from Wed – Sat 1pm –6pm. Closing Saturday\, September 7th 4pm

SUMMARY:Pebbledash Wonderland - Shane Lynam
DESCRIPTION:Pebbledash Wonderland  is Shane Lynam‘s photographic account of his adopted home city\, Dublin. The exhibition builds on Lynam’s long standing explorations of urban space across Europe\, which has influenced his work toward new subjective and narrative concerns. The exhibition is Lynam’s third major body of work and follows on from his acclaimed book\, ‘Fifty High Seasons’\, considering modernist French resorts (2018)\, and ‘Contours’\, his exhibition in 2013. \n“Pebbledash Wonderland offers a timely reminder that the complex elements of a contemporary city are almost impossible to grasp in their entirety\, but must be felt\, lived\, and recorded\, in small\, seemingly insignificant moments. Returning over and over to the same sites\, Lynam obsessively photographed the city to create a series of subjective\, abstracted spaces that sit somewhere between reality and his own experience. Presented here for the first time in its entirety\, the exhibition invites the viewer on an imaginary walk through Pebbledash Wonderland.” \n24th August – 12th October\, Photo Museum Ireland\, Meeting House Square\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2

Active since 1979\, they’re one of England’s most loved bands. Matt Johnson’s political lyrics have always captured the zeitgeist so it’s a timely return. Local heroes A Lazarus Soul – who have just released their brilliant ‘No Flowers Grow In Cement Gardens’ album –  provide support on the night. \nJames takes over Collin Barracks on the 26th\, with The Zutons in support. Known for their compelling rock anthems like ‘Johnny Yen’ in the 1980s\, James achieved mainstream success with their 1990 album ‘Gold Mother’\, which included their massive hit ‘Sit Down’. When Amy Winehouse covered The Zutons song ‘Valerie’ the royalty cheques poured in and drew attention to one of the UK’s most entertaining bands. Recently reformed\, their appearance guarantees a top night out. \nGossip headline on the 27th\, marking their return with a first album in over a decade\, ‘Real Power’. The album celebrates creative expression while exploring themes of personal trauma. The brilliant Dublin 4 piece Sprints and American indie trio Nation of Language support to close out a stellar six days of music. \nWider Than Pictures takes place at The National Museum of Ireland\, Collins Barracks\, D7 August 23rd – 27th \nInfo & tickets: widerthanpictures.ie

SUMMARY:Friendly Piece Installation by Crash Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Friendly Piece\, an installation by Crash Ensemble at Mermaid Arts Centre\, is based on a piece by composer Andrew Hamilton exploring friendliness and loving kindness\, asking the question\, “can music be kind?” \nCommissioned in 2019 and written during Andrew’s time as composer in residence with Crash Ensemble\, the piece explores the ambiguous space in which music is performed. This recorded piece alludes to hovering between things\, to evade being pinned down. It explores friendliness and kindness giving you a ‘tiny bit of joy or even infuriating you’. \nInterweaving a live recording of Friendly Piece at Kilkenny Arts Festival in 2023\, this installation created by visual collaborator Emma Martin with production by Rob Kearns. \nOpen to all ages\, Friendly Piece will be installed on the stage Mermaid Arts Centre. \n\n\nThere’s also a workshop with Andrew and some members of Crash Ensemble on Thursday 22nd August from 6pm – 7.30pm – see full details here.
