David Hughes at the ADF Gallery, Belfast David Hughes at the ADF Gallery, Belfast
Submitted on April 26, 2012 – 12:51 pm

4 – 29 May | Opening Thurs 3 May 5 – 7pm | ADF Gallery, Ground Floor, Cathedral Quarter Workspaces,
109 – 113 Royal Avenue | The Arts & Disability Forum presents: The Case of the Drowned Archive Rust prints. In 2009, some months before the archive was to be shipped to permanent housing, its store room was flooded. David opened the door to be met with water cascading from the ceiling and a mini tsunami rushing towards him. Washing machines on the floor above had overflowed. David Hughes has spent the last year in his studio recreating the process of rust printing, that he accidentally discovered on the floor of the storeroom, by pressing the filing cabinets onto wet canvas. Some of the prints are coloured with printer inks. He will show a selection of these rust prints during the exhibition and will also recreate the process of flooding and rusting as a live event producing new rust prints during the exhibition itself | Further info: www.adf.ie | www.dhbricolage.net

Stephen Gunning at Monster Truck, Dublin : Show Extended Stephen Gunning at Monster Truck, Dublin : Show Extended
Submitted on April 25, 2012 – 2:44 pm

Show extended to 26 May | We are pleased to have ‘Les Endormis’ (The Sleeping) by Stephen Gunning as our inaugural exhibition North of Monster Truck. In the spring of 2011, as artist in residence at the Centre Culturel Irlandais, Paris, Gunning spent much time venturing into the streets and surrounding suburbs of Paris to photograph portraits and scenes of people sleeping against the urban landscape in a bid to explore the diversity of such a basic human experience. While portrait photography more commonly captures expressions of the conscious mind that is aware of the cameras presence, here we get a glimpse of the unconscious |  www.vimeo.com/gunning | www.monstertruck.ie/blog/?page_id=6940
