PROJECT ARTS CENTRE DUBLIN



CONJURING FOR BEGINNERS GALLERY TOURS

As part of First Thursdays join us on 2 August between 6 - 8pm for a tour of our new exhibition Conjuring for Beginners. These Walk 'n' Talks will be hosted by two young artists so come along for chats and insights - questions, questions at the ready...
Visual arts is taking over Project Arts Centre this summer to present three unique exhibitions and our most ambitious project to date.

Conjuring for Beginners will transform the building; the Space Upstairs will become a giant gallery filled with sculpture on an enormous scale, by one of Ireland’s most promising young artists Sam Keogh; the Cube will be home to a trio of artworks, light, sound and video installations by Janice Kerbel (CA/UK), Zbynek BaladrĂ¡n (CZ) and the 2010 Turner Prize winning artist Susan Philipsz (UK); and in the gallery the final piece of the exhibition will be a collection of playful sculptures as the works of Daniel Dewar & GrĂ©gory Gicquel (FR), Angela Fulcher (UK/IE) and Ruth E. Lyons (IE) play out side by side.

Conjuring for Beginners runs at Project Arts Centre from 3 July until 11 August 2012, admission is free and the exhibition will be accompanied by a series of talks and special events
