Worklink North West exhibition
Artlink is currently planning the third annual exhibition of the artwork of members of Worklink North West, based in Buncrana. This programme is going from strength to strength, and the energy and diversity of last year’s ‘Picasso to Pinhole’ exhibition will certainly be equalled. The exhibition is planned for 16 – 30 June and will be held in the Artlink exhibition space at Fort Dunree Military Museum.
Earagail Festival Exhibition
For the Earagail Festival exhibition Artlink presents ‘Memory, Memorial’ a show by artist Moira McIver and featuring contemporary photography and video. ‘Memory, Memorial’ is based on five individuals who served in the Second World War, who were interviewed and photographed by the artist in their original uniforms as an exploration of the relationships between public memorial and private memory.
This exhibition is also part of Artlink’s programming at Fort Dunree, set in the poignancy of the converted military hospital exhibition space. Moira McIver has exhibited widely, including The Victoria and Albert Museum, London, Oliver Dowling Gallery in Dublin, Old Museum Arts Centre in Belfast and with galleries in The Netherlands, Canada and Tel Aviv.
Artlink Painting Club exhibition
Members of the Painting Club who have been meeting regularly in the Artlink Studios throughout the winter and spring months, are ready to show their impressive efforts…an exhibition of the members’ artwork will be shown at the Artlink exhibition space at Fort Dunree, opening on Sunday 20th August and continuing until Sunday 27th August. Entry to the exhibition will be free, and some of the work will be for sale. The majority of members who attend the Painting Club have also attended Oil Painting night-classes as part of the Artlink programme, most recently led by artist Marty Kelly, based in Inishowen and who regularly exhibits in Belfast, Dublin, London and recently in Poland.
