Opening tonight in Dublin: At Pallas Contemporary Projects Current Trends - Past Prospects. Sarah Browne and Gareth Kennedy, The work in this exhibition is derived from sources that include a 1977 Hollywood film; a fragment of a script from TV show Dallas (1987); an advertising jingle Bringing Home the Oil - promoting the Gulf Oil company based in Bantry Bay (1969), and a Dáil debate (1985, after the Betelgeuse disaster). The actors in these texts are concerned with global economics and natural resources, and as a series, these obscure cultural artefacts begin to re-trace an alternative historical trajectory linked to contemporary concerns.

And at the Hugh Lane THEN a new Breaking Ground multi-part public art work in various locations across Dublin by Adam Chodzko. Chodzko's work blatantly subverts expectations of what ‘public art’ is and who it is for. "Chodzko’s work is a wryly philosophical look at how an area is read and how individuals present themselves within society.

Both at 6-8pm get your art shoes on and do both.
