For our annual Studio Members Exhibition, the Directors of MART Ciara Scanlan and Matthew Nevin are delighted to present a curated selection of Visual Artists working in our MART studio network in Dublin/Galway and MART Membership Artists.
MART is the largest supplier of independent, affordable space for the arts, cultural and creative community in Dublin city. We now support over 120 members in 6 studio buildings across Dublin. MART firmly believes in the self-determining artist and art organisation as vital societal and cultural catalyst. It is also a provocation on the role of action in the production of identities; individual and collective, local and global.
Supporting the professional development of our artists is a key part of our remit. Our artist members work across a diverse range of practices which encompasses painting, sculpture, print, drawing, illustration, digital art, photography, film and performance art. Providing the members with an opportunity to exhibit their work publicly gives MART a chance to showcase the expanse of artistic output we support while also allowing the artists to raise their profile, widen their access to audiences and sell their work.

From the Royal College of Physicians Ireland:
Climate breakdown and human health are highly interwoven
“The exhibition is part of the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland’s commitment to advocacy around the huge challenges we are facing triggered by climate change and the impact this will have on the world’s population, which arose as a key advocacy priority during national consultations with our physicians. The College wishes to provide a space for discussion of the challenges of climate breakdown and for the formulation and promotion of solutions to the climate crisis. Art is one way of articulating the personal and collective feelings and stories around this challenge and for envisioning shared solutions that protect health and the planet.
Climate breakdown and human health are highly interwoven. Burning fossil fuels is the greatest contributor to global heating and causes increased rates of cardio-respiratory illness and premature death. Health effects of extreme weather events include hypothermia, dehydration, kidney disease, stroke, malnutrition, and water-borne infections. A paradox is that healthcare delivery itself contributes significantly to global heating. If the healthcare sector were a country, it would be the 5th largest polluter in the world.
We need to find ways to protect our health and protect the planet. How we travel, how we eat, how we consume, how we provide essential services – these can be our stumbling blocks, or they can represent opportunities for a just future.”

Upcoming Workshop- The Unkindest Cust: The Revolutionary Politics of Collage @ Temple Bar Gallery + Studios, Dublin - Sunday 16th September 2018 at 3pm
*UPCOMING WORKSHOP*
The Unkindest Cut - The Revolutionary Politics of Collage
Presented By: Anthony D Kelly
Date: Sunday 16th : Time: September 15.00 - 17.00
Venue: Temple Bar Gallery + Studios, Dublin, Ireland
As part of: Collagistas Festival #5
Collage by its very nature is a medium that is uniquely placed to reflect, distort and even clarify social and political issues by virtue of its appropriation and reorganization of mass media imagery. Throughout the process of selecting imagery, cutting, placement and following his/her own intuitive and aesthetic sense to a satisfying composition, a skilled collage artist manages to pull in many various sources of digital and printed media. When the blades come out, the artist filters this vast array of visual and textual source material through their experiences of living in this world with its triumphs and trials, producing in the end a singular reflection on the times in which we live. Join artist Anthony D Kelly for a presentation and discussion on The Politics of Collage, Satire and Global Citizenship at the end of the discussion he will hold a One Hour Collage Salon in which he will invite participants to sit, work and discuss these themes with each other while making collage.
(If you want to participate send an email to collagistas@gmail.com)
Anthony D Kelly is a Freelance Illustrator, Writer and Visual Arts Practitioner. He currently bases his practice in Castlebar, County Mayo located on Irelands West Coast.He has extensive experience as a Gallery Administrator, Curator and Project Facilitator from his time at Basement Project Space an artist led initiative which was based in Cork City, Ireland.
