The Museum of August Destiny
July 15 –September 4
Aideen Barry, Amanda Cooga, Mark Clare, Anthony Haughey, Dragana Jurisic and Sarch Pierce
A commissioned exhibition curated by Dr. Emily Mark-FitzGerald (University College Dublin). Adopting the form of the idiosyncratic “personal” museum, six artists have been asked to respond to visionary ideals set out in the 1916 Proclamation, presenting individual meditations on the State and society’s realization of (or retreat from) the “august destiny” envisioned by the Rising’s leaders.
