a filthy liar.

E v a r b The acceptance of fear, of insecurity, the process of true, self reflection and the willingness to continue, in spite of doubt, to inspire, to provoke, and to challenge through great art.


Welcomes

Artistic Director’s Welcome. Welcome to the new Project Season – I am delighted to finally share with you some of the thrilling performances, exhibitions and events about to explode out of the big blue building in the coming year. Packed within these pages are exciting collaborations between world-renowned artists, bold new works from our Project Artists, the best in new and emerging talent taking to our stages, and a deep dive into our archive, starting with the extraordinary offsite projects from the 1990s, and bringing to light the immense history lived within these walls - the people, the art, the artists – a history teeming with a spirit and resolve that can be traced right up to the events of the past year. And yet, while our upcoming season is bursting with daring, courageous ideas, it does not reflect the innumerable artists and ideas that are absent from these pages. We are living in a time of great economic growth but that growth is not trickling down to the cultural sector and most definitely not to the freelance artists and cultural workers who make up the many projects in our programme, projects that underpin the very work that we do within these walls.

Fear is temporary, regret is eternal.

Be Brave

We are grateful to The Arts Council/An Chomhairle Ealaíon for their ongoing, long-term support, support that has enabled us to bring the work of these brilliant artists to our stages and galleries. The current government has made great public commitments to increase their support for the arts and cultural sector and I welcome those commitments, but it’s time for the government to stand by their pledge and invest in living artists and their work. Since its founding over 50 years ago, Project has always supported artists who take risks. Sometimes the unsayable needs to be said, there are voices and ideas that need to be heard, and we believe that we live in a society that is hungry for challenge and debate. In this time of great global turmoil, it is crucial that artists have a safe space where their ideas and vision are cherished and protected, where bravery not only defines the art that they create but also defines the audiences they create it for. And Project is that space. Be brave – Join us and be part of something new. Cian O’Brien Artistic Director

‘I am starting with the assumption that the archive is not only a place of storage but also a place of production, where our relation to the past is materialised and where our present writes itself into the future; thus, accordingly, I understand the archive as a place of negotiation and writing.’ Ines Schaber: Obtuse, Flitting by, and Nevertheless There – Image Archives in Practice, 2011 Goldsmith College, University of London

Visual Arts Programme.


I’m thrilled to welcome you to the new visual arts season at Project Arts Centre. This upcoming programme provides us with a unique opportunity to not only reflect on our own history but to address the rapid changes and increasing urgencies that prevail in contemporary society, beginning with addressing Project’s own rich history and utilising it as a catalyst for change.

Archives and research–based work will be the dominant thread throughout this season with late August signalling the launch of an in-depth enquiry into the layered histories of Project Arts Centre. These intersecting histories and narratives weave together a choir of multiple voices - those of the funders, artists, organisers, curators, builders, journalists, historians, politicians, sympathizers and constant complainers, and last but not least, the voices of you, our audiences. Through selected chapters and themes Active Archive – Slow Institution will explore these histories through a contemporary critical gaze, unravelling a complex understanding of the Centre’s history starting with the 1990s. The coming months will also see the gallery morph between active archive and conversational hub as the visual arts programme spills out across the building, crossing genres and artforms. Expanding the possibilities for conversation and dialogue will be a new commission by sculptor and choreographer Christopher Mahon, as well as a screening and talk series by the film curatorial duo aemi, an agency dedicated to the support and exhibition of experimental moving image work. In keeping with our commitment to support artists and the development of their work we are delighted to host the next phase of Åsa Sonjasdotter’s multi-year research project Cultivating Stories, a project that delves into stories of plant cultivation via modern industrial and colonial history. We also see the return of Dutch artist Nicoline van Harskamp with a very special site-specific performance piece, My Name is Language, a work that has been developed from her ongoing research into the evolution of language and following on from her Englishes series which was exhibited at Project in February 2018.

Active Archive – Slow Institution Presented by: Project Arts Centre / Genre: Visual Arts Space: Gallery / Dates: 30 August – 22 December 2018 Time: Various / Price: Free Admission

Image Credit: Demolishing Project by Maurice O’Connell, 1998, courtesy of Valerie Connor.

Description Active Archive – Slow Institution is a major research project that will delve in to Project’s rich 50+ year history. For four months the gallery will be transformed into a research-archive-work-meeting space and a study of the documents and archives that uncover the history (or rather histories) of one of Ireland’s oldest public art institutions. One of the driving forces behind developing Active Archive – Slow Institution is to look at what future proposals for transformation are inscribed within Project’s manifold history. The studying and interrogation of documents and archival artefacts not only supports the recovering of the history of one of Ireland’s oldest art centres but also approaches that history from the perspective of pressing contemporary issues. Through this new lens we can re-evaluate the changing conditions of artistic labour and production, the agency of artistic and curatorial work in relation to economic, social, and political institutions of power, as well as the status of exhibitions and the role of public institutions.

The gallery space will generate and host discussions and conversations, both with professionals and the wider public, to read Project’s histories via the wider context of cultural, institutional, political, social and intellectual histories, including the building development of Temple Bar, gender representation, the history of Irish feminism, and LGBTQ rights. The first chapter which focuses on the 1990s with special attention to the OFF Site projects and Project@the Mint and the development of the current building is prepared with curator and writer Valerie Connor, and will result in an exhibition early next year. Culture Night | 21 September | 6pm – 9.30pm We are inviting the public to experience part of our 1990s archive, and to add to the project this Culture Night by bringing their stories, memories and materials to add to the collection. Please visit projectartscentre.ie for more information on events, talks and updates on the project. Concept and organisation: Lívia Páldi

Cock, Cock… Who’s There?

Description Dublin Fringe Festival and Project Arts Centre are joining forces once again for NEIGHBOURS. We’re here to disrupt the cultural landscape and get you closer to the international artists making waves around the world. Good neighbours presenting great art. This year NEIGHBOURS present an awardwinning performance about violence and intimacy. Samira Elagoz takes us along on her personal research project across three continents. From online platforms to close encounters, she showcases gender relations in all their brutal and wonderful ambivalence. Elagoz takes the audience on her journey of regaining power, reinventing an autonomous expression of sexuality and attempts to relate to men after being raped.

9

Confrontational, unrestrainedly funny and deeply touching, the performance explores desire, the power of femininity and the male gaze in a world in which the virtual and the real are inextricably intertwined. Cock, Cock.. Who’s There? won the Prix Jardin d’Europe at Impulstanz in 2017. Supported by the Finnish Cultural Foundation, Blooom Award By Warsteiner and SNDO - School for New Dance Development. Presented with the support of The Finnish Institute in London. For audiences aged 16+ Production Credits Devised & performed by: Samira Elagoz

‘Couched’ – durational sculptural work (2018) new commission Image Credit: Face, 2018, Photo by Christopher Mahon

Presented by: Christopher Mahon / Genre: Visual Arts Space: Gallery / Dates: 4 October – 22 December 2018 Time: 11am - 8pm / Opening: 4 October 2018, 6pm Price: Free Admission

Description In this new performative commission Christopher Mahon further develops his most recent sculptural experiments using his family couch. The piece of furniture was designed by his father in 1988 and has been re-upholstered using laser printed images of his mother’s sculptural work. The piece proposes to present itself as a complex item: a changing sculptural constellation, a conversational corner and a performative platform, which ties in to the Active Archive – Slow Institution project. It weaves together various art and intimate histories, spaces conducive to confiding, sensuality, and the need to lounge. Couched will be activated through readings and performative events. This production is kindly supported by Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam.

Description Names can cross cultural boundaries in ways that most other words cannot, but they can also suffer lots of damage along the way. Mispronounced, garbled, even replaced completely with something more acceptable to the dominant culture, they can start to lead a life of their own. This is the story behind a new performative work by artist Nicoline van Harskamp. In a bureaucratic setting, a place where names are collected, filed, inflicted, withdrawn, and adapted, van Harskamp stages a storytelling session of anecdotes about naming. This collection of real and fictional narratives has been gathered through extended research and conversation with migrants about the fate of their names, in Graz and elsewhere. Put back together and fictionalized in an evocative literary text, they provide the basis for an immersive performance, in the course of which it becomes clear that proper names are not always bound to their owners. Rather, they live on independently as pieces of data to be stored, markers of identity, brands, and tools of surveillance whose location is all important.

Description A unique series of artist-led discursive screening events featuring Jenny Brady, Sarah Browne, Dennis McNulty and Tadhg O'Sullivan presented by aemi, an agency dedicated to the support and exhibition of artist and experimental moving image work. As audiences we generally encounter a film or artwork after or at the point of its completion. Process | Event offers the rare opportunity to observe and engage with an artist's thought process as it occurs, before the final form of what they are producing has been determined. This programme comprises a series of collaborations between 'aemi' and four widely acclaimed Irish artists who work with the moving image. These events will be uniquely structured to give insight into the role of the artist or filmmaker as researcher, with each artist invited to select and present a screening programme that informs or reflects on ideas they are in the process of developing in relation to a new moving image work. The artists will adopt a variety of means to describe the relationship between the film works in the screening programme and their individual research processes, giving audiences the unique chance to respond to and participate in discussion led by the artists about their work.

6pm, 30 October: Dennis McNulty 3.30pm, 10 November: Tadhg O’Sullivan 6pm, 20 November: Jenny Brady 6pm, 4 December: Sarah Browne aemi is supported by the Arts Council.

The Bystander

Description What makes us help someone and what makes us simply stand by? ‘I didn't want to get involved’ Anonymous Neighbour, 1964 An intriguing and adventurous production by multi-award winning dance theatre innovators, Junk Ensemble.

Murdered outside her apartment in Queens, New York, thirty-eight witnesses saw or heard the attack, yet no-one called for help. Performed by internationally acclaimed performers and drawing on the expertise of a psychologist, The Bystander gets under the skin of how we behave, bringing to the surface some of the murkier and complex behaviours of contemporary society. ‘Junk Ensemble has created some of the most impressive contemporary dance in Ireland... Enthralling and exact’ The Sunday Times The production is funded by the Arts Council Dance Project Award.

Future of Ireland stuck in a pub making shit jokes…" This fast paced, comic and unsettling one-man adventure sees our Lost Boy pulled apart by the voices inside his head.

Performed with astonishing virtuosity by Ste Murray, directed with verve by Eoghan Carrick, PANNED is a play for our city's lost boys and girls, speaking to our society's unrealistic expectations and our battle for a place in a world smaller than our dreams.

Cultivating Stories Presented by: Åsa Sonjasdotter / Genre: Visual Arts / Talks / Dates: December 2018 / Time: Various / Price: Free Admission

Description When searching for examples of sustainable agriculture prior to the industrial revolution, it’s hard to find any in the part of the world where this revolution was instigated. Since the last ice cap withdrew in North West Europe most farming systems have left behind irreversible marks of soil depletion. However a closer look at details in the region’s history reveals overlooked practices and gaps in narratives, opening up the possibility for new understanding and reconnection to nurturing practices. In a multi-year explorative project hosted by Project Arts Centre and conducted in collaboration with Archive Books, Berlin, visual artist and amateur plant breeder Åsa Sonjasdotter researches historical archives and connects with various practitioners of more-than-human cultivation

25


and knowing. During the summer of 2018, she visited experimental archaeologists and seed savers, artists, farmers and foresters, storytellers, historians and curators in Ireland. Based on these meetings a series of gatherings will generate a process of figuration and speculation on co-nurturing cultivating practices. Åsa Sonjasdotter’s work emerged from her combined experience of smallholding and artistic practice. She has been part of several trans-disciplinary projects, often involving botanical and natural historical archives and collections. Since 2005 she has investigated stories of potatoes with a special interest in the plant’s role within colonial and capitalist transformations throughout modern industrialisation.

Description With smash-hit runs both at home and abroad, and hot on the heels of its triumphant cinematic release, Dublin Oldschool returns home to Project.

Somewhere between the DJs, drug busts and hilltop raves, he stumbles across a familiar face from the past: his brother Daniel. Daniel is an educated, homeless addict.

Things will appear and then disappear But you will not be afraid.

“Doireann Coady delivers one of the bravest, rawest, emotionally exhausting performances you’re ever likely to see... A performance that howls, screams, excites, and eviscerates. A cry, a prayer, a never-ending love letter, ‘I’m Not Here’ is touched by the divine.” - The Arts Review

Every Day I Wake Up Hopeful

Image Credit: Carrie Davenport

‘Lusciously theatrical…’

38


East Belfast Boy by Fintan Brady Meet Davy. The things he sees. His streets. His mates. His girl and… The Boys. With pumping techno, pulverising movement and street sharp poetry, East Belfast Boy is a rollercoaster ride and a cliché-free zone. ‘It is what it is. It’s hard to say what it is... It’s just you know... What it is…. 110%” "A hugely kinetic ride through those highs and lows, a superb blend of social and cultural observation." - The Digital Fix "DJ Phil Kieran has mixed an incessantly pounding techno soundscape, which perfectly tees up Oona Doherty’s trademark gritty choreography.” - The Even Hand

Every Day I Wake Up Hopeful by John Patrick Higgins Malachy has made a decision, perhaps for the first time in his life. Tonight is the night. He has six bottles of wine, a bucket of chicken and he wants to talk about it. He really wants to talk about it. Poignant and confessional - Every Day I Wake Up Hopeful is also desperately funny. Funny to the bone. “Lusciously theatrical…. Everyday I Wake up Hopeful is a funny, sad, touching paean to the profundity of supposedly small lives and small thoughts.” - CultureHub Magazine Supported by the Arts Council Northern Ireland, North South Touring Grant, Belfast City Council, An Comhairle Ealainn and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Suitable for ages 14+ Contains strobe lighting.

Description A story of unfilled potential, The Wickedness of Oz follows a day in the life of a travel agent with a penchant for 1960s musicals. Debbie McInerney's day spirals into a mire of self-doubt when she wakes up to a newsfeed clogged with expats having the time of their lives. Convincing herself that there's no place like home, Debbie is forced to face the reality when her boyfriend tells her he has some news. Winner of a Zebbie Award for Best Radio Play (RTE Radio One) ‘Kate Gilmore bounds through the theatre with all the swagger of the funniest girl from school’ - Irish Times ‘It's like watching a Star being born... funny, touching, tender’ - The Arts Review ‘Gilmore displays real star quality as Debbie, a girl who looks carefree but is anything but’ - The Sunday Times Production Credits Written and performed by: Kate Gilmore Directed by: Clare Maguire Produced by: Breda Cashe Sound Design: Denis Clohessy Choreography: Kitty Randle Vocal Coach: Shelly Bukspan Lighting Design: Colm Maher Graphic Design: Ste Murray

Extraordinary Rendition Presented by: Action Hero / Genre: Theatre / Space: Cube Dates: 6 - 8 March 2019 / Time: From 12pm / Price: €10

Description The battle for hearts and minds starts here. How does culture become a weapon of warfare? How is a Britney Spears song connected to a global network of secret prisons? How does radical philosophy become military strategy? In a cabin built from the same materials as Camp X-Ray, the temporary detention facility at Guantanamo bay, and with the same internal dimensions of a detainee’s cell, Extraordinary Rendition is a piece for one person at a time that uses video, sound and live performance to interrogate the kind of colonisation that begins with the battle for hearts and minds. This is a 15-minute performance for 1 person at a time.

“Some of the most thrilling work currently being produced in the UK” - The Guardian Developed with the support of Caravan and BIOS, Athens. Action Hero are a National Portfolio Organisation of Arts Council England. Suitable for Ages 18+ Production Credits Created, written and performed by Gemma Paintin & James Stenhouse. Commissioned and produced by In Between Time for IBT15. Co-commissioned by Arnolfini, supported by LICA and The ShowRoom, Chichester. Action Hero are members of Residence and Farnham Maltings associate artists, and are an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation.

Slap Talk Presented by: Action Hero / Genre: Theatre / Space: Cube Dates: 9 March 2019 / Price: Free, Suggested Donation €5

Description Inspired by the self-aggrandising of boxers at the pre-fight weigh in, Slap Talk is a verbal sparring match that is both a linguistic version of the fight itself and a reflection upon the violence present in everyday language. Speaking to each other and to the audience via a live feed from a camera to a monitor, the performers rant, insult and threaten each other in a scripted version of a pre-fight press conference crossed with a 24 hour rolling news channel. Over 6 hours, an autocue scrolls a continuous barrage of passive aggressive violence of lovers talking, the hard sell of a shopping channel, the anger of the fire and brimstone preacher, the subtle violence of middle class one-upmanship.

Developed with the support of Caravan and BIOS, Athens. Slap Talk began in The Darkroom, China Plate’s development space for writing and performance.

Merlin Presented by: Iseli-Chiodi Dance Company / Genre: Dance Space: Space Upstairs / Dates: 28 - 30 March 2019 Time: 7.30pm / Price: €14-16

Description A furry monster, a headstrong child-woman, a jumping shamanic devil, a crumbling statue... Here the pathways of several fairy-tale characters cross and intersect in what could be the clearing of a dark forest. They recount attempts to formulate the human composure in a relentlessly invasive wilderness. Shaped under the influence of pagan carnivals, this dark present-day tale plays with the irruption of instinct, myth and wilderness through the surface of our social composure. Simultaneously wise man and wild man, Merlin dances at the interface of law and nature: we are moving animals, longing for meaning. Performed by an outstanding cast of national and international dancers, Merlin stages both the constant and the paradoxical, interlocking between shape and substance, education and instinct, culture and nature, and the rift between our semantic narratives and the pulsations of our organic bodies. Merlin is funded by an Arts Council Project Award. Iseli-Chiodi works in residency at the Tipperary Excel Arts Centre and is supported by the Tipperary Dance Platform, funded by the Arts Council under the Dance Artist in Residency Awards scheme, Tipperary Excel Arts Centre and Tipperary County Council. Suitable for ages 12+

Production Credits Concept and Artistic Direction: Alexandre Iseli & Jazmin Chiodi Cast includes: Clara Protar, Jazmin Chiodi and Alexandre Iseli Lighting: Sinéad McKenna Original soundscape: Oscar Mascareñas Costumes: Pierre Canitrot
