Species of Space II
The Six Memos project presents Species of Space II, a curatorial seminar in partnership with LCGA, EVA International and Ormston House. This two-day event marks the return of LCGA and EVA International to the newly redeveloped Carnegie Building and the launch of Ormston House on Patrick Street under the Creative Limerick initiative.
Friday 25 November 2011, 10.30am – 5.30pm
Limerick City Gallery of Art, The Carnegie Building, Pery Square, Limerick
Species of Space II will take place at the Carnegie Building with a panel of distinguished curators presenting case studies on their experiences of negotiating space: Katerina Gregos on The Danish Pavilion at the 54th Venice Biennale – Challenging curatorial orthodoxy in the Biennial Context; Alfredo Cramerotti on Translating, Expanding, Compressing and Misusing Space; Vaari Claffey on Substance Abuse at Gracelands; Simon Rees on EAST by SOUTHWEST; and Annie Fletcher on Be(com)ing Dutch.
Saturday 26 November 2011, 12-3pm
Ormston House, 9-10 Patrick Street, Limerick
The following day, Fugitive Dialogues will take place at Ormston House with James Merrigan and Michaële Cutaya. Fugitive Papers are an artistic research project to explore ideas about art, writing, criticality and public(s) in Ireland at this time. The project is determinedly experimental and involves opening a temporary critical space within which to organise opinion and reflection on art and art-writing, as a public activity.
Admission is free and all are welcome.
