Works by Peter Campus can currently be viewed at Albion, London until April 25th. This is an exhibition I must see when I visit London next month. After all the excitement of the Irish Oscar win things have now settled down.
The Hot 8 Brass Band were great but the support act North Strand Klezmer Band were even better. I attended a conference and exhibition Art in the Life World where the two key words were : autonomy and instrumentalism.
I attended a seminar After Thoughts at The Green on Red Gallery. Here my fascination with Dublin city, and the buildings that have formed it - most notably The Central Bank - was greedily fed with a screening of The Big Bank, a 16mm film commissioned by John Sisk & Son Ltd. which documented the actual construction of The Central Bank with a disco infused sound track and cutaways to computers that were bigger than my own bathroom.
I watched Juno (its ok) played Lego Star Wars on Playstation 2, archived some 7s into sections - 60s+70s, 80s+90s, 2000s and Dancehall and finally watched the tour de force that is Daniel Day Louis in There Will be Blood.
Pics soon - I'm finished.
