Art | History | Politics: contemporary artists in conversation


Mon 20th April, 14.00-17.00 (Harry Carke Lecture Theatre, NCAD)

This discursive event is led by three artists whose practices often relate the contemporary moment in art and culture to earlier moments and other histories. Each engages in distinctive ways with the task of shaping political, historical and art-historical genealogies of the present, in artworks, writing and other forms of discursive production.

Participants:
Ross Birrell (artist; lives and works in Glasgow)
Neil Clements (artist; lives and works in Glasgow)
Sarah Pierce (artist; lives and works in Dublin)
Dominic Paterson (MA Coordinator, History of Art, Glasgow University)Francis Halsall & Declan Long (directors, MA Art in the Contemporary World, Dublin)

[*The event will be followed by drinks and food in Luncheonette (5:30-8:30) with a screening hosted by ACW. Booking is essential for this – as food and places are strictly limited.]
