Creating A New Old: Bealtaine Festival

Art 14 May 2012 by ali

What kind of old do you want to be? What facilities would you like to have access to as an older person? How do you expect to be treated by the rest of society? Given the inevitability of the ageing process, it’s a wonder we don’t ask ourselves these questions more often. Many of us [...]

Review: Wallace Shawn’s The Fever @ Players Theatre

Drama 3 May 2012 by dan

Last night I found myself scuttling across the cobblestones in Trinity College’s Front Square. Low. Stealthy. Like Molloy, the geriatric cat burgler from The Simpsons. A gait adopted on the spot in an attempt to (a) escape the pissing rain (Day 3 of 40 I suspected), and (b) not end up banana-peeling the slick surface [...]

Deeper Dark: Liliane Tomasko @ the Kerlin

Art 30 April 2012 by ali

Abstract art can bewilder the keenest of art enthusiasts but there is something immediately warm, familiar and inviting in Tomasko’s work that draws the viewer in and retains their attention. The contrasting textures, rich colours and layering effect apparent in the Deeper Dark series entices the viewer to reach out and stroke the canvas in [...]

Wallace Shawn’s The Fever @ Players Theatre

Drama 27 April 2012 by dan

This intriguing little gem- a production by 98.6 Theatre Company- runs for one week only (April 30th- May 5th) at the Players Theatre, Trinity College. A politically charged monologue, investigating the nature of conscience and morality in an ethically grey, inherently unjust world, it promises to strike a chord with audiences craving artistic identification with [...]

A Familiar Print; six years of looking at Louis le Brocquy

Art 26 April 2012 by sue

A print that I’ve alternately referred to as Procession or Children in a Wood, number thirty-nine of seventy-five, has been on my bedroom wall for the last six years. A birthday present from my dad, it was hung over my desk, with a mirror to the left and a window to the right. It is [...]

Michael Reynolds: The Garbage Warrior @ The Sugar Club

Architecture 26 April 2012 by David

Michael Reynolds – The Garbage Warrior Film: Garbage Warrior Movie Shorts, Wednesday May 9th, The sugar Club, 7.30pm Lecture: Sustainable Autonomy For Everyone (S.A.F.E.), Saturday May 19th, 2-4pm I have a confession to make. Whenever I hear an architect talking about how sustainable their work is, I get uncomfortable. Not because sustainability is not important; [...]

Louis Le Brocquy (1916-2012)

Art 25 April 2012 by Dave

The sad news was announced today of the death of the great Irish Artist, Louis Le Broquy. The artist passed away after a long illness at the age of 95. There has been a huge reaction both in the media and on social networks to the sad news. The Irish Museum of Modern Art made [...]

Monster/Clock @SmockAlley Theatre

Musical 14 April 2012 by dan

Student theatre collectives, for all the rattling enthusiasm, are by their nature caged beasts. Diverting, occasionally unpredictable creatures whose impulses mirror those of their larger, free-roaming elders but whose actions are, more often than not, undermined by the restraints of youth and inexperience. If we’re very lucky, college productions provide us with flashes of genuine [...]

Paul Graham’s The Present at the Pace Gallery, New York (#paulgraham)

Photography 29 March 2012 by sue

We are alienated, we are isolated, we are disassociated.We move with a practiced purpose to fulfill the day’s rituals and bring that day to an end, and in doing so invoke a facilitating sightlessness. In Paul Graham’s current exhibition at the Pace Gallery in Chelsea, New York, street photography’s focus is moved from the spontaneity [...]
