Following the grand opening and a series of talks, the international Centre for the Image is now open. The inaugural exhibition, Foreword, presents works by 17 artists brought together in conversation to underline the curatorial concerns that the International Centre for the Image will be dedicated to.
Participating artists: Abigail O'Brien, Alan Butler, Alex Prager, Ana Zibelnik & Jakob Ganslmeier, Anna Ehrenstein, Anna Safiatou Touré, Basil Al-Rawi, Bassam Issa Al-Sabah & Jennifer Mehigan, Colin Martin, David Farrell, Dominic Hawgood, Eamonn Doyle, Jean Curran, Mishka Henner, and Penelope Umbrico. Curated by Ángel Luis González Fernández and Julia Gelezova, Foreword includes several new works exhibited for the first time. Together, they present a conversation around the complex dynamics within technology and image making, the politics of representation, and arts practice. The exhibition offers a rich diversity of narratives and artistic approaches through installation, photography, and video works.
