SUMMARY:Everything Now
DESCRIPTION:Everything Now is a rollercoaster ride danced by an all-male\, ethnically diverse cast of renowned dancers – Kevin Coquelard (France/Ireland)\, Maurice Ivy (USA)\, Sebastiao Mpembele Kamalandua (Ireland/Angola) and Ryan O’Neill (Ireland). The dancers thrust us into a dynamic and vital physical exploration of how we respond to media and whether individuals can safeguard who they are when identity shifts\, is reshaped\, and shifts again in a time when nationhood is transformable\, languages meld\, and the news is incessant. \n  \nEverything Now combines the formality and rigour of highly disciplined dance with elements of a 1960s happening to explore the pervasive\, potentially damaging influences of Western society\, of being consumed and consuming\, while recognising that joy is still to be found. \n  \nThe piece is accompanied by powerful new music composed by Brian Hogan\, bass player and co-writer/arranger with Kila\, and leader of Preacher’s Son; and the support of a laughing/shouting/silent multicultural chorus.

SUMMARY:Ailbhe Barrett's INFUSIONS
DESCRIPTION:Graphic Studio Gallery presents INFUSIONS\, the debut solo exhibition of Ailbhe Barrett. James Hanley of RHA will officially open the show on the 7th of September at 6pm. He has said the following of Ailbhe Barrett’s work: \n“Nine large prints – a mix of etchings\, monoprints with etchings\, and etchings with carborundum – feature alongside two original oil paintings. Country landscape predominates\, with one exception of an evocative view outward from Limerick train station\, the tracks slowly dissolving in the creeping mist\, form disappearing into the ether in the manner of Monet’s similar manifestations of light and steam enveloping stone and iron. \n \nBut it is in those rural landscapes that Ailbhe’s star shines. It is here that her innate artistic sensibility finds voice. This is the world of her childhood and she knows it from its winter light to its summer sun\, and from its hills to its meadows. \nHer images are not\, however\, the landscapes of a locale or a particular place\, but rather the suggestion of a mood\, the evocation of a place that captures her imagination. It is not surprising that Turner was an early inspiration in the way he transformed the world into something far more atmospheric than it is by his bravura manipulation of paint. So too with Ailbhe. Two trees side by side\, hedgerows and fields\, a bend in the river\, distant mountains shimmer in a haze of memory made manifest by her mastery\, with aquatints\, sugarlift and spitbite amplifying her dexterous line.” \n

SUMMARY:Gladys and the Gutter Stars
DESCRIPTION:Gladys and The Gutter Stars aims to explore\, mock and ultimately celebrate what it means to create and what it means to fail. Part gig\, part interview\, the production features newly written songs and lyrics by Cameron Macaulay and Rachel Gleeson. You can watch a clip of the performance here\, to get a taste of what’s in store. \nAn intimate interview and performance from one of the most overlooked fictional bands of 2017: Gladys and The Gutter Stars. They’ll discuss the making of their self-titled debut album\, and all the triumphs (and tribulations) involved in the process. In a strange turn of events\, Gladys\, the group’s enigmatic front-woman\, has not been heard from in the six months following the album’s release. Rumours abound. Some say she is now a snorkeling instructor in Palau. Others say that she is simply down in Cork. \nPerhaps the two remaining Gutter Stars might shed some light on the mystery. Or perhaps deepen it.

SUMMARY:Shelby Earl
DESCRIPTION:Shelby Earl weaves epic stories of love\, loss and darkness with her emotive voice. Treading the line between indie and folk\, Shelby is an essential part of a new wave of female musicians like Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten who are writing poetic song lyrics and offsetting them with sparse production in order to expose the heavyweight emotions at play. \nShelby draws characters in her musical stories; her latest album tells tales of babies not yet born and of women who will cry an ocean of tears\, if only to test their ability to swim. Couched in symbolism\, each track is like a short story that you listen to over and over\, annotating it in your mind. \nExperience Shelby’s power and storytelling skill at Whelan’s this Sunday\, September 10th.

SUMMARY:Pear Label Launch
DESCRIPTION:Dublin collective Pear kick off their first release with the debut EP from local bearded maestro r.kitt consisting of 4 kaleidoscopic house joints. \nYou can listen to both tunes of the A-side here.\nDrawing deeply on influences from Chicago and from the distinct melodic emotion achieved by artists like Larry Heard\, each track on this 12 is awash with feeling riding some strong rhythms to provoke bodily movement. The melodies are deep and rich\, the beats are banging\, and you are invited to bop and groove. \nIn the artist’s own words: “I want your mind and body to be lost in this experience. The Jigsaw EP is a map to get you there.” \n

SUMMARY:Käthe Kolwitz | Life\, Death\, and War
DESCRIPTION:Final call for this impressive collection of 40 prints by this German artist on the year that marks her 150th birthday. Her five print cycles: Revolt of the Weavers (1893-98)\, Peasant War (1902-08)\, War (1921-22)\, Proletariat (1924-25)\, and Death (1934-37) place her among the foremost printmakers of the twentieth century. A committed socialist and pacifist who eventually leaned towards communism; her work took a path from realism to expressionism. A true pleasure.

SUMMARY:Song Cycle
DESCRIPTION:Well into it’s third year\, Whelans Singer songwriter night ‘Song Cycle’ continues to offer a platform for local and non local acts to experiment\, sing and share in the friendly informal setting of Whelan’s front window. Taking our cues from our favourite artists musings on the creative process (Van Dyke Parks lends us the title from his seminal 1967 opus) this night offers artists a fresh new stage to breath life into songs\, experiment with ideas or simply just play for the sheer enjoyment of it. \nThe Format of Song Cycle has developed a little since moving downstairs earlier this year.  Regular hosts Ollie Cole and John Byrne help us curate the evening and take part as well by performing some of their works in progress as well as old standards. Needless to say an impromptu session is never too far away if some of their special guests feel like playing a song or two. \nSong Cycle takes place in Whelan’s front bar every Monday\, admission is free and all are welcome to play.

SUMMARY:Freedom of Movement
DESCRIPTION:MART Gallery presents the exhibition Freedom of Movement by Nina Fischer & Maroan el Sani\, supported by The Arts Council of Ireland\, Goethe Institut Dublin and the Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen. The exhibition has been curated by MART Gallery Manager Deirdre Morrissey. \nThe MART Gallery’s curatorial vision for 2017 is to select artists who work under the parameters of risk and political agitation\, creating powerful\, informative and experimental work. On Thursday\, August 24th MART will present ‘Freedom of Movement\,’ an exhibition of film work by renowned German artists Nina Fischer and Maroan el Sani.MART first introduced the work of Fischer & el Sani to Ireland in 2014 when the artists presented film works ‘Narita Field Trip’ and ‘Spelling Dystopia’ in an exhibition curated by Barry Kehoe. Both pieces were created when the artists were Associate Professors at the School of Art and Design in Sapporo City University in Japan and explored tensions that arise between the forces of globalisation and specific local narratives.Always keen to build upon established relationships with international artists\, MART has invited Fischer and El Sani back to Dublin for the presentation of two recent film installations ‘Identity’s Rule of Three’ (2015) and ‘Freedom of Movement’ (2017) These films pose questions on various aspects of human identity and society\, the limits of geographical\, artistic and social structure\, and race relations.Nina Fischer & Maroan el Sani are visual artists and directors who have worked collaboratively since the 1990s and both live and work in Berlin. Through their work they have explored narratives in various sites around the world juxtaposing hidden histories with the lived experiences of contemporary society and questioning cultural perspectives \nThe exhibition continues: 25 Aug – 22 Sept 2017

SUMMARY:Wilderness Notes
DESCRIPTION:Kirkos Ensemble and the Experimental Film Society are proud to present Wilderness Notes\, an exciting collaboration bringing together two of Ireland’s most innovative contemporary arts group from the fields of music and film. \nWilderness Notes will feature premieres of 3 new films by EFS filmmakers Rouzbeh Rashidi\, Maximilian Le Cain and Vicky Langan\, and Atoosa Pour Hosseini\, created in tandem with new compositions by young Irish composers Barry O’Halpin\, Sean Ó Dálaigh\, and Robert Coleman which will be performed live by the Kirkos Ensemble. \nThe three films that comprise Wilderness Notes all explore psychic\, territorial and technological margins. Isolated characters\, all somehow locked into masks or fixed personae\, navigate desolate zones between dimensions where a sense of being physically adrift and at risk is mapped onto a corresponding inner state. But they are not only adrift in space\, they are equally adrift in time. Making experimental use of several outdated moving image formats\, notably Super-8 and VHS\, Wilderness Notes summons up ghosts from an abandoned future\, taking its cues from the western\, the nightmare of nuclear holocaust and the masks of ancient theatre. \nAll three of Wilderness Notes’ musical compositions were written to complement EFS’s filmmaking approach. Barry O’Halpin’s is derived from the electromagnetic spectra of 5 chemical elements\, resulting in an ethereal and almost alien set of harmonies and moving parts\, while Sean Ó Dálaigh pits the ensemble against undulating sine waves and introduces an element of choice into structural repetitions to create a vibrant microtonal universe. In contrast\, Kirkos co-director Rob Coleman’s contribution is a song cycle\, setting poetry by American poet Morri Creech for voice\, ensemble and electronics\, examining the states of consciousness that flash beneath the waking mind.  \nFor Wilderness Notes the Kirkos Ensemble will be Miriam Kaczor [flute]\, Léonie Bluett [clarinet]\, Máire Carroll [piano]\, Jane Hackett\, Cillian Ó Breacháin [violins]\, Nathan Sherman [viola]\, Yseult Cooper Stockdale [cello]\, Barry O’Halpin [electric guitar] and Sarah Thursfield [voice]. \nTickets here:

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:Pop-up: The Crate
DESCRIPTION:Like a wildflower sprouting into riotous life\, 5 Dame Lane is being visited by a new\, temporary and thus all the more exciting pop-up store\, called The Crate. The product of flora-fanatics Claire and Steph\, who describe it as “an online Irish flower and styling business\,” The Crate weaves together their love of design\, fashion\, and flowers. Their products look like the bouquets of forest brides\, elf queens; leafy things with little explosions of colour. \n \nFor easy decision-making\, The Crate has minimised on choice\, simplifying flower buying by offering one uniquely styled bunch\, in three sizes\, at three pricepoints. \nThe selection changes weekly\, preventing you from getting the same flowers twice and adhering to the call to fluidity that nature strictly demands. \nSensitive to the developing focus on the environmental impact of consumer products\, The Crate flowers are uniquely packaged in eco-Kraft paper and string\, with personalised fun cards thoughtfully designed to create a story between you and those that you care for. This dedication to detail is what makes The Crate unique\, tending to each customer with supreme care and thoughtfulness. \nThe Crate’s pop-up blooms on until this Thursday\, August 31st\, but you can still order online from them here.

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:The Grove 50th Anniversary
DESCRIPTION:Almost every teenager growing up on the Northside of Dublin\, and beyond\, between 1967 and 1997\, will have heard of\, the now legendary\, alternative disco known as The Grove. Most of them will have gone\, at least once\, to find out what all the fuss is about. This year\, The Grove celebrates it’s 50th anniversary. The simple fact that we mark the 50th anniversary of this school disco says it all. \nOn the afternoon of February 19th\, 1967\, in the hall of the Belgrove Football Club (from which the disco gets it’s name)\, a group of Clontarf locals set up for\, what they considered to be\, just another Clontarf-based social event. Little did they know\, that this was to be the first night of the thirty year run\, of the disco that was to influence the music tastes\, to one extent or another\, of every person who walked through its doors. \nThe man behind the turntable\, 20 year old Cecil Nolan\, affectionately known to all as just “Cecil”\, had already garnered the reputation as the “music man of Clontarf” – if you were at a party in the neighbourhood\, he was\, more often than not\, the man in the corner spinning the discs… Originally running twice a week\, and three times during school holidays\, The Grove Social Club\, as it was formally branded\, quickly became a permanent fixture in the school diaries of that north Dublin generation. Over it’s 30 years\, The Grove was considered a safe haven for teens of north Dublin\, a melting pot where rockers could hang with Mods\, with Goths\, with geeks\, with hippies\, with Cureheads… No matter how you wore your hair\, you were accepted for who you were. Of course there was the music: Cecil’s playlist naturally grew and morphed over the years\, but there were more than a few staples that stood the test of time and became true “Grove Songs”. Among them  were Ram Jam’s ‘Black Betty’\, Boston’s ‘More Than A Feeling’\, Rainbow’s ‘Since You’ve Been Gone’\, ‘Purple Haze’ by Hendrix\, Santana’s version of The Zombies’ hit ‘She’s Not There’\, B52’s ‘Rock Lobster’\, Talking Heads ‘Psycho Killer’\, too many Zeppelin\, Doors and AC/DC songs to mention and in later years\, tracks like The Waterboys ‘The Whole Of The Moon’ would join the ranks of Grove Classics . And of course\, it wouldn’t be a school disco without the slow sets – where “Stairway” and ‘Freebird’ regularly rubbed shoulders with the likes of Janis Ian’s ‘At Seventeen’\, Hazel O’Connor’s ‘Will You?’\, Judy Tzuke’s ‘Stay With Me ’til Dawn’ and Dylan’s ‘Lay Lady Lay’. \nSadly\, in 1975\, the old Belgrove Football Club caught fire\, and was burnt to the ground. Not letting this stop the momentum\, Cecil and the rest of the Grove crew quickly relocated The Grove to a venue just a stones throw away\, the gymnasium of St. Paul’s College on Sybil Hill Road\, Raheny\, where it played out it’s next 22 years. Finally\, in 1997\, for various reasons\, they decided to call it a day and The Grove said it’s last goodbye. \nThis month\, in the year of it’s 50th anniversary\, The Grove will be returning home\, back to St. Paul’s College\, for one very special weekend. This will be a once in a lifetime chance for ex-Grovers to relive those memories – same Grove DJ\, same Grove music\, and for many the same Grove venue. The first night\, August 26th\, sold-out the day after tickets were released\, but a second night\, Friday August 25th has been added. Tickets have just been released through www.tickets.ie and were still available at the time of writing. In accordance with the school’s wishes\, there will be no alcohol available on the premises over the weekend\, just like the original Grove\, but there will be some organised pre-parties at various locations throughout the city – see www.TheGroveSocialClub.com and The Grove Social Club Facebook page for details. Just don’t forget your Polo mints and your address\, so you can get past the bouncers! \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSR6ZzjDZ94

DESCRIPTION:For Heritage Week\, the people down at the Gallery of Photography are exhibiting their collection of family photo albums. There will be free photo scanning workshops to help you create high-resolution digital copies of your family photographs. It will show you how to care for old photographs and advise on restoring & repairing precious\, damaged photographs\, so the memories may make it through the years. \nThe Photo Album of Ireland archive project records the rich social history held in family archives. Check out the online archive project\, which explores the role photography plays in documenting our lives and recording our memories – preserving them for future generations. The exhibition features a selection of photographs from the current phase of research – Reframing the Border – recording diverse experiences of families from the border counties. The exhibition runs until Sunday\, 27th August.
