Paul McKinley 
In Conversation with Ingrid Lyons


Paul McKinley In Conversation with Ingrid Lyons, Saturday 5th of December at 12.30pm.

Kevin Kavanagh is pleased to announce the release of a new publication commissioned by the gallery on the occasion of Hanuman, an exhibition of recent work by Paul McKinley. 
The launch of the publication will take place on Saturday the 5th of December at 12.30pm. Paul McKinley will discuss the development of ideas that led to the current exhibition Hanuman.


In the months leading up to the exhibition Paul McKinley entered into a correspondence with literary journalist, UN spokesperson and author of The Cage, Gordon Weiss. McKinley’s work has often been influenced by journalistic practices as he researches and utilises second hand source material to inform his own practice. Owing to this dynamic The Cage was a source of inspiration given that Weiss experienced the civil war first hand and has written extensively on the matter. Weiss has produced a text for the publication in which he approaches McKinley’s work through his own thoroughly researched understanding of the final days of the Sri-Lankan civil war.



All are welcome and coffee will be available before and after the talk. Admission to this event is free.
