The New Irish Works series 2023-24 continues at The Library Project in December with Martin Seeds

Launch 6pm on Thursday 7 December
Running 4-24 December
At The Library Project, 4 Temple Bar Street, D02 YK53.

‘No Country For Young Men’ looks back, via appropriation, at a series of found portraits in a Belfast school yearbook from 1965.  This was a time, a few years before “The Troubles” started, when political tensions in Northern Ireland were rising and trouble was brewing.  Seeds’ act of appropriation places these 1960s school portraits into our current moment, and from our historical vantage point asks us to consider how individual lives in Northern Ireland were affected by the backdrop of a violent conflict that would last for 30 years.

Photobook Launch: Lay Her Down Upon Her Back, by Róisín White

Launch 6pm on Thursday 14th December
At The Library Project, 4 Temple Bar Street, D02 YK53.

Pre-orders are now open for Róisín White's new photobook in advance of the launch at 6pm on Thursday 14th December at The Library Project. Winner of Landskrona Foto and Breadfield Dummy Award, the book brings together the artist’s own photographs, found archival material, handmade drawings, oral accounts and extracts from literature, Lay Her Down Upon Her Back looks at the history of medical mistreatment and uneven power relations between male doctors and female patients through a type of photography where evidence itself plays the role of symptom. For both in photography and in hysteria it is the surface that carries meaning and depth, providing the space onto which meaning plays out.
