INTRODUCTION ArtTrail /// Multiple Endings NOV 19 - DEC 6
2010
/// LAUNCH NOV 19, 1PM, AT FORMER SAWMILLS SITE, COPLEY STREET, WITH TOUR OF PROJECTS AND ARTISTS TALKS /// Since it’s inception in 1996 ArtTrail has focused on showcasing the diversity of practice in contemporary art, and supporting the development and presentation of work with established and emerging artists. Continuing a strong tradition of site specific and site related projects, the festival is again set to take over various city centre venues this November with the former Sawmills site on Copley St providing its focal point. This year’s programme explores the theme Multiple Endings. The selected projects and supporting events feature a wide range of responses, many concerning topical social & economic issues. National and international artists contribute to a variety of events including: projects, exhibitions, open studios, guided walks, talks, performances, screenings, and workshops. Much of the programme has been developed collaboratively by organisations in Cork City, pooling resources and ideas to extend possibilities. A series of talks expands discussion on the artists and projects in the festival, and introduces wider research in art, science, design, technology, economics, and culture. Invited speakers include AA Bronson, Seamus Kealy, Alex Williams, Mike Fisher, William Lynn, Siobhan Rigg, and Spiers+Major ArtTrail’s theme in 2010 was influenced by developments from outside the world of art – including the social upheaval resulting from Ireland’s current precarious economic situation, pressure on the Irish population to own this failure, discussion on the future direction of the Irish economy and the lack of public debate on the future direction of Irish society, and the marketing of chance and randomness in both positive and negative ways – and from within it by the unpredictable nature of art practice, where experimentation and research foster a continual re-evaluation of materials and methodologies. Originality and individuality are major concerns in many walks of life, western economics and business demand a constant stream of new ideas. But is a new idea more than a new interpretation of existing information, a random permutation or combination of data? Randomness suggests helplessness, hopelessness – but is also cleverly repackaged as possibility: it could be you (winning or losing). Compared to beginnings, edges and endings seem to cause most problems – ropes, roads, rivers, brakes, tribunals, relationships, careers, ideas, research. Is knowing where to stop more important than knowing where to start? The role of observer or commentator is often associated with artists, they are mediums or conduits – researching, interpreting and translating information from a diverse range of sources – looking in from the outside. Perhaps a truer description would be instigator, agitator, activist, or communicator. A drive to develop new ideas fuels the research, the motivation is to test and investigate - often ignorant of, oblivious to, or abstaining from existing social and economic structures. The artists invited to present work for the festival this year are developing and presenting old and new ways of looking at the world, suggesting and demonstrating that we are not helpless in the face of circumstance, and that taking a decision to act is a necessity and a possibility. The ending might not be part of the work, the work might not have an ending “The more things change, the more they stay the same” “Always the same, that’s why it’s different” “I’ll be back” “The End” ArtTrail 2010

Wandesford Quay Gallery
NOV 13 - 27 // WED - SAT 10AM-6PM Official opening on NOV 12 The first in a series of exhibits designed to facilitate a survey of work that operates in the space between art and science, and aims to encourage a dialogue between the sub-disciplines of these fields. The exhibition addresses practices between art and science. On the one hand there are scientists who produce images as a by-product of their research. Then there are artists who use tools, methods or themes associated with the practice of science and designers who examine how technologies are redefined through their use in everyday situations. This exhibition presents work that treads the boundaries between art & design and science, and participants include artists, designers, and researchers whose practice is linked through technology. Participants include: Biological Sciences, Cork Institute of Technology; Blackrock Castle Observatory, Cork; Computer Science, Cork Institute of Technology; CIT Crawford College of Art and Design; Fields, Edinburgh College of Art, Scotland; i-DAT, University of Plymouth; Interaction Design Centre, University of Limerick; Transtechnology, University of Plymouth; Tyndall National Institute, Cork.

PAUL GREEN & DR. PAUL WALSH (IE) THE TAILOR A5
Tyndall National Institute
NOV 19 – DEC 5 Daily 9am - 5pm A collaboration between artist Paul Green and computer scientist Dr. Paul Walsh, combining photography, 3D-modelling, digital post-production, and the automatic generation of landscape imagery using evolutionary algorithms. The work plays with the idea of self-organising systems of evolutionary design in dialogue with increasingly redundant models of manufacturing based on hand craft production, a potential future of large scale production of nature with the ‘aura’ of the hand-crafted object. In terms of its process the work also represents the conflation of disciplines of science and art in creative practice and attempts to stimulate discourse around the boundaries of these fields of practice.
BERN ROCHE - FARRELLY (UK) CONDUCTOR D6
Former Sawmills Site
NOV 19 – DEC 5 Daily 11am – 5.30pm 100 performance actions displayed on a wall, a set of 10 props and a conductor who mediates the relationship between the text and physical action. All are welcome to become performers by following the text. These performances run the spectrum from the bluntly physical to the purely mental. The Conductor invites the public to enact the text - this negotiation forms the basis of the performance and determines each outcome of the piece.

Daily 11am - 5.30pm Audio tour exploring the city and waterways of Cork, weaving together texts and descriptive imagery to tell a story of local geography, sub-arctic territories, finding one’s way, and trying to see what’s right in front of you. Based in extensive research into the issues emerging with the newly accessible territory around the Arctic Circle, and the history of exploration and exploitation in that area, this piece in some senses is a geography lesson – exploring the melting of the Arctic Northwest Passage in the context of issues closer to home. The Walk is approximately thirty minutes. Audio and map available on Mp3 player or file transfer to your own device at the start, and to download from the artist’s website www.sarigg.net, or www.arttrail.ie ///You can use your own headphones and MP3 player, or a limited number are available on loan.

WWW.FUTUREMENDERS.COM PADRAIC E. MOORE (IE) INVESTIGATIONS INTO THE SUPER-PHYSICAL C5
Princes Street Unitarian Church
NOV 20 // 7PM - 9PM Investigations into the Super-Physical is an event organised by Padraic E.Moore at which an accompanying publication of the same title will be launched. This one-night event is comprised of a performative lecture which includes screenings of material by several artists (including Kenneth Anger, Susan Mac William and Shana Moulton) and also a live performance by David Turpin. The publication distributed free of charge at the event provides readers with a stimulating insight into a subjective exploration of a variety of super-physical phenomenon. This black and white pamphlet brings together the work of numerous artists and thinkers including Arthur Conan Doyle, Rebecca O’Dwyer, Gunilla Klingberg, Lee Lozano, Abaigeal Meek, Garrett Phelan, Rudolf Steiner, Nikola Tesla and Ciaran Walsh. Although presented within the context of visual art, it will become evident that the issues and objectives of this publication and its associated lecture transcend any particular discipline – and are, moreover, principally concerned with that which is not available to us through our visual faculties. While this ongoing investigation is first and foremost intended as an artistic gesture, the fundamental objective is to incite a reappraisal of that which lies beyond the realm of the familiar material plane.

CIT Crawford College of Art & Design
NOV 29 – DEC 3 Screenings from 1 - 2PM Free admission The Black Mariah has established a unique partnership with the CIT CCAD, founding a specialised video art collection to purchase key works by internationally significant artists for the benefit of the students of the college into the future. A work from Canadian group General Idea has been chosen as the first purchase. AA Bronson, the only living member, will officially launch the collection on Saturday 4th December. Formed in Toronto in 1969, the artist collective General Idea — AA Bronson, Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal — generated an influential body of work that included video, performance, photography, installations, publications and a range of other distributed media. In their distinctive videos, General Idea often took on and parodied television, hacking into its toolbox of genres, tactics and formats to deliver witty, ironic critiques of the art world and celebrity-fueled popular culture. Their politically potent videos harnessed TV as a vehicle for media activism, exploring social phenomena ranging from the production, distribution and consumption of mass media images to gay identity and the AIDS crisis. AA Bronson will discuss General Idea and his practice with Seamus Kealy (Director, Model Arts, Sligo) on Saturday December 4 / 3pm, at CCAD Lecture Theatre, CCAD, Sharman Crawford St. SOCIABLE SCIENCE (IE) JUST KEEP SHOPPING (EVERYTHING WILL BE OK) C3

NOV 17 // 6.30 PM
NOV 25 // 6.30 PM
Artist Siobhan Rigg and computer programmer William Lynn from NMCI, visualisation specialist with the IMCORE project, will discuss ways in which art and technology develop ways of seeing and processing our environment, the necessity of being aware of changes in that environment, and the effect visualizations have on our understanding and perception.
The National Sculpture Factory presents a talk by award-winning architects Spiers+Major, discussing their treatment and use of light. Light is life. It stimulates and excites us. It is constantly changing, from dawn to dusk, from day to day, from season to season. Light defines the forms, colours and textures of our cities, buildings and landscapes. Light not only reveals them, but also hides, augments and re-creates them. Light shapes our perception of the physical world – it also opens the door to virtual worlds and to past and future realities. Speirs + Major create innovative solutions for a wide range of projects in a world that is made of light. Supported by RIAI Southern Region

CIT Crawford College of Art & Design NOV 24 // 6.30PM
CIT CCAD artist-in-residence Mary Giehl – sculptor, installation artist and faculty member at Syracuse University – discusses her practice and recent projects. “My work participates in a discussion that analyzes and disentangles specific images of our culture about our children. I have made the decision that my work would not offer that escape into an aesthetic discussion, intellectual diversion, imaginative fantasy, or simple entertainment. I am interested in creating works that educates, agitates and troubles the audience. It is important to captivate the audience to have them bond with the work to create that lasting memory.” www.marygiehl.com

THE BLACK MARIAH, Triskel, ESB Substation Caroline Street
NOV 19 - DEC 6 Until – DEC 11 A Town Crier will publicise messages given to him by the people of Cork. The messages could include community announcements (Cultural events), personal messages (invitations, love letters...), political views, poetry, etc. This information age allows us to communicate with virtually everybody, everywhere, but nevertheless, we regularly feel voiceless on certain topics. The Town Crier will enable certain messages left aside by technology to be transmitted from one person to another, or to be shouted to the streets of the city.
Bodysuit Opening Ceremony, is a one-person exhibition of the British artist David Wojtowycz in Cork. Bodysuit Opening Ceremony is a permutation and sequel to IRUTTURI, shown at September Gallery in Berlin in March 2010. Using doppelganger, mirror reflection, the merging of image and likeness, Wojtowycz creates images that perform a kind of autoerotic act evoking an abysmal, highly stylized parallel world imbued with death, sex, bodily fetish, and Hollywood dreams.
Messages can be delivered to corktowncrier@gmail.com, or posted in a letterbox located in the lobby of the City Library, Grand Parade. The Town Crier will perform each Saturday, 12pm, at the food market near the Opera House.
BREDA LYNCH (IE) STRANGE LOVE D4
THE BLACK MARIAH, Triskel, ESB Substation Caroline Street NOV 19 – DEC 11 Strange Love is a one person exhibition by artist Breda Lynch. Lynch’s work explores and draws inspiration from areas of the Gothic within art, literature, music and film that examine gender identity. The genre has always been the favoured form for exploring the aberrant and transgressive, and in challenging any given ‘truths’.
