Gather: Words, language and the making of an exhibition - Livestream

11 March 2023

The Irish Tour of Ireland at Venice brings together parallel creative voices in language and film who produced work alongside Niamh O’Malley' exhibition Gather.

The event features readings by acclaimed writers Eimear McBride and Brian Dillon who contributed texts to the exhibition book as well as a conversation with Niamh O’Malley and the curatorial team of Clíodhna Shaffrey and Michael Hill. The day was mediated by Kate Strain of Kunstverein Aughrim.

Accompanying film screenings include those by artist, Jenny Brady whose film Gather follows O’Malley through the making of her Venice exhibition and Ros Kavanagh’s film which documents the show in Venice. The event provides audiences an opportunity to engage with and consider an artists’ expanded practice as an opportunity for collaborative creativity across disciplines of literature and film.
