Upcoming Events

The Meaning of Greatness, a show by Sarah Pierce opened in the Project Arts Centre on 8th June, 2006. Pierce who is known for her discursive practice (The Metropolitan Complex) drew on her research to make an archive that will result in a re configuration of the gallery.

In response to an invitation to work with Project and The Model Arts and Niland Gallery, the artist Bojan Sarcevic proposed the following question - To what extent should an artist understand the implication of his or her findings?

Between April 5th - 11th, Project Arts Centre presented works by the independent Inuit media collective, Igloolik Isuma (To Think) Productions in a viewing library in the Project Gallery.

Project was very proud to present the first Irish exhibition of the seminal Canadian artist's group General Idea (1968 - 1995) in January 2006. Established by AA Bronson, Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal, for almost thirty years this group worked with wit, theoretical sophistication and formal flair to critique and challenge the norms of both high and low culture - earning them a place within the cannon of the late 20th Century avant-garde.

An installation and workshop at Project will take as its starting point the documentary film 'Artcirq' by Isuma Productions. Artcirq follows a project initiated by Guillaume Saladin, a circus student from Montreal, that took place in Igloolik a remote Inuit settlement of 1200 people off the North West Coast of Baffin Island in the Canadian arctic.

For three nights only in September, the visual arts programme at Project presented The Alien by Matti Braun, a production that combined visual art and theatre disciplines in the staging of a version of the unrealised screenplay by Indian film director Satyajit Ray.
