SUMMARY:Gallery Visit | Tulca 2024 | The Salvage Agency | Wednesday November 13th
DESCRIPTION:« All Events \n \nGallery Visit | Tulca 2024 | The Salvage Agency | Wednesday November 13th\nDate & Time:\n13 November\, 2024\n@\n9:15 am\n–\n10:10 pm\n\n\nAdd to calendar \n \n\nGoogle Calendar\niCalendar\nOutlook 365\nOutlook Live\n\nCategories:\nExhibition & Site Vists \nABOUT\nOn Wednesday the 13th of November we are heading to Galway to catch this years TULCA festival. Interested in a day trip to see some art? Join us! \nWe’ll be getting the 9:25 train down from Heuston\, and will get the 19:25 train home. There’s quite a lot to see as work is spread through multiple venues (map below)\, so feel free to wander off and see the bits that interest you most\, and pop back in whenever suits. \nPlease RSVP below so we can gauge interest. \n… \nThe Salvage Agency considers the agency and role of art in contemporary ecology and environmental action. Curator Michele Horrigan notes “Galway\, on the edge of the northeast Atlantic\, is a unique location for a heightened awareness of what is at stake. Explorations of landscape\, seascape and nature\, public space\, colonial history\, political structures\, the industrial complex and folk narratives are all pertinent. These are paths taken by our collective society in the shaping of today’s world and a contemporary Europe. Can art create an undercurrent of improvisation and frugality\, haphazard formality\, and change to offer new perspectives\, provocations and empathy? From the wreckage\, can art nourish a new reality?” \nThe 22nd edition of TULCA is realised in venues throughout Galway city and county\, including Galway City Museum\, Zoology and Marine Biology Museum\, The James Mitchell Geology Museum\, Galway Arts Centre\, 126 Artist-run Gallery\, Galway Civic Trust\, University Gallery\, Pálás Cinema and more off-site venues to be announced. \nJOINING US?\nGallery Visit RSVPPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form. \n\nName *\nFirstLast\n\nComing?\n\nYES!\n\n\n \nSubmit \n\n \nLinks\n\nBOOK TRAIN\n\n\nBOOK BUS\n \nDetails\nTrain from Heuston to Galway: 9:25 (arriving 11:53)\nMeeting Point: 9:10 Heuston Station \nTrain from Galway to Heuston: 19:25 (arriving 22:09)\nMeeting Point: 19:10 Galway station \nIf you are arriving/departing on an alternative route and wish to join the group – text me on 089 479 6046 and we can let you know our whereabouts. \n\n \nOrganizers\nRachel Naughton\nLisa Crowne\n\n\n\nMembers Social | Movie Night: Spirited Away | Tues 12th Nov 18:30 | A4 Sounds Gallery \n\nMember Led Life Drawing (clothed) | Tuesday 19th November 7 – 8:30 \n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Gallery Visit | 'When The Body Says Yes' | Melanie Bonajo at Imma
DESCRIPTION:« All Events\n \n\n	Gallery Visit | ‘When The Body Says Yes’ | Melanie Bonajo at Imma\n\n	Date & Time:\n			15 August\, 2024\n	  @\n4:00 pm\n	  –\n5:30 pm \n\n	Categories:\n		Exhibition & Site Vists\, Member Support\, Professional Development Programme\, Socials\n																										 \nABOUT\nWhen the body says Yes  is an immersive video installation by Melanie Bonajo (they/them)\, a queer non-binary Dutch artist\, filmmaker\, sexological bodyworker\, and somatic sex coach and educator. The installation\, originally commissioned by the Mondriaan Fund for the Biennale Arte 2022\, is part of the artist’s ongoing research into the current status of intimacy in our increasingly alienating\, commodity-driven world. For Bonajo\, touch can be a powerful remedy for the modern epidemic of loneliness. \nThrough their videos\, performances\, photographs and installations\, Bonajo examines current conundrums of co-existence in crippling capitalistic systems\, and address themes of eroding intimacy and isolation in an increasingly sterile\, technological world. \nThey research how technological advances and commodity-based pleasures increase feelings of alienation\, removing a sense of belonging in an individual\, and their works present anti-capitalist methods to reconnect\, explore sexualities\, intimacies and feelings. Their experimental documentaries often explore communities living or working on the margins of society\, either through illegal means or cultural exclusion\, and the paradoxes inherent to ideas of comfort with a strong sense for community\, equality\, and body-politics. \n			\n						 \nCOMING ALONG?

The generative video takes a narrative cinematic journey following the course of an imagined river from a forest stream\, through an industrial plant\, and a port metropolis at the ocean’s edge. The video’s content and its score\, performed ‘live’ in the space by a Disklavier (MIDI-controlled player piano)\, is unique each time it is experienced. Significant aesthetic\, auditory and structural elements of the work are directly influenced by changes in localised live external data from the ‘real world’ (atmospheric conditions\, air and water quality). In this exhibition\, data will be drawn from local monitoring sites at Dublin Port\, to deliver context-specific image/data variations.Rivers are a recurring analogy for the passage of time in history and across societies\, and ‘dream sequence’ is an exploration of the perception of time and reality. Pattison proposes that the act of dreaming is a subconscious analogy of virtual metaverses and a transgressive escape from a hostile reality.” \n\n\n\n\n\nLiliane Puthod – ‘Beep Beep’\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Liliane Puthod’s Beep Beep is a large-scale immersive artwork consolidating her research on handmade and mechanised production\, commodity fetishism\, and the archaeology of consumerism. \n\n\n\nTwo embellished shipping containers hold precious cargo: a 1962 Renault 4 (R4) car reanimated by the artist from her late father’s dusty shed in her hometown in the Rhône-Alpes region of France. For many years\, the car sat idle among a jumbled assortment of other objects that were initially discarded: bikes\, lamps\, ashtrays\, tools\, machine parts\, camera equipment\, piles of scrap metal\, ladders\, and countless other everyday artefacts amassed by Puthod’s father with the optimism that they may have a second chance at a life of use.” \n\n\n\n\n\nSiobhán McGibbon – ‘Netflix and Disintegrate into Nothing and Everything’ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The exhibition transports viewers into the world of Xenophon\, where they will encounter the Xenothorpians\, a fluid species that commune and mutate with living and non-living entities to adapt to the Anthropocene. Their hybridisations provide a backdrop from which new stories emerge- a tongue-in-cheek approach to the problem of humans. This new chapter is a multi-species romance told in three parts. \n\n\n\nThe sculptural installation; Netflix and Disintegrate into Nothing and Everything (part 1)\, is an invitation to engage in intimate relations\, beyond the species and the sexual. The title refers to a popular euphemism for sexual activity while alluding to the steaming hot togetherness of compost. The work is driven by the question of queer multispecies desire\, can loving beyond protocol result in more relational choices that disrupt human-centred practices in the garden. \n\n\n\nTo re-think garden relations this love story broadens sexuality to include how we inhabit and interact. The project positions the unkempt; weeds\, hedgerows\, and meadows as queer sites of desire where gender-bending cohabitors embrace diversity and fluidity\, and rhizomes disrupt normative reproduction. Counter to this are the manicured\, weeded\, overgrazed\, cropped sites controlled & depleted by human desire”. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganisers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n	Related

It bleaches or enhances colour\, it focuses attention and strains the eyes\, it is simultaneously nourishing and draining; it expresses a multitude of contradictions that elevate and impede closeness and connection. In her new film\, ‘Approx 1 Second of a Sweet Kiss’ (2023-24)\, Lisa Freeman\, draws on natural light’s influence on psychological positivity\, patterns and focus. The film begins with an awakening\, the soft vibration of a phone call in a room lit with the bright glow of summer sunshine. The call is answered by a young woman who relays her experience of a personal dilemma\, and tells of how the artificial lights at home have been fizzing and flashing\, a hint that an energy imbalance is affecting her luck and connectivity to others. As the woman opens the apartment’s balcony doors\, the sound of a bustling city square fills the room and she immediately falls into a state of relaxation. \n\n\n\n‘Approx 1 Second of a Sweet Kiss’ follows the woman\, the film’s protagonist\, as she makes her way through an unfamiliar city. During the course of a day\, she meets several people with their own sets of expectations and forms of communication. The film uses elements of holiday suspense or ‘sunshine noir’ genres to convey psychological drama\, but rather than the protagonist succumbing to a situation of horror or dread\, her encounters are acts of kindness and openness from strangers in a place away from home. These gestures appear unnerving\, even to the woman\, as there is an expectation of hostility and confrontation in this urban landscape. Freeman reclaims a sense of tenderness and generosity in the civic space\, which is a development of her recent works that also address gaps in emotional and verbal interaction (‘Slipped\, Fell and Smacked my Face on the Dance Floor’\, 2022)\, and social isolation in the public realm (‘Hook\, Spill\, Cry Your Eyes Out’\, 2022). Rejecting the desire for idyllic escapism\, Freeman instead proposes intimacy as a method of resistance. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNAMACO – MEGA DREOILÍN \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A committee of vultures sweeps the Dublin sky. Composed of landlords\, investment funds and the political juggernaut known as Fianna Gael\, they pursue a bloodthirsty quest to dominate all land and wealth\, leaving death and destruction in their wake. \n\n\n\nBut unknown to them\, an underground force unfolds its wings. Foretold by the Ancient Celts as An Dreoilín or Draoi éan – druid bird – the tiny wrens emerge as a fearless foe. \n\n\n\nAs main character Em (they/them)\, you must battle landlords\, Gardaí and vultures across four Dublin-based levels. But can you uncover the Mega Dreoilín\, an ancient energy field within yourself and your allies\, in order to face your final adversary?” \n\n\n\nNAMACO emerges from a decaying Dublin to unleash bizarre edutainment products on unsuspecting landlords. Headed by Han Hogan and Donal Fullam\, NAMACO makes video games that demystify housing precarity\, cultural space scarcity and the effects of corporate landlordism in Dublin for a generation of renters unwillingly trapped in adolescence. Featuring a cast of characters which includes Avril Corroon\, Ian Lynch and Rory Hearne\, Mega Dreoilín posits that Ireland’s age-old land question is not as complicated as our political representatives would have us believe. \n\n\n\n16-bit video game Mega Dreoilín is a radical reimagining of edutainment designed for the demographic of ‘Generation Rent’. Positioning itself as a revolutionary instructional manual\, Mega Dreoilín allows players to learn about the bureaucratic land dominance imposed on Ireland by successive waves of colonisers\, landlords and global multinationals\, as well as the strategies required for collective resistance against these sinister powers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganisers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related
