Conceptual Art Wednesdays 9, 16, 23 and 30 July 2025, 2.30pm-4.30pm Led by Jessica Fahy, this four part course will trace the development of conceptual art from the early 20th century to the present day. Drawing from the Hugh Lane collection there will be in depth analysis of individual works as well as a broader look of the art movement internationally. As part of the examination of conceptual art in Ireland the influence of literature and theatre and writers like Joyce and Beckett will be considered. Performance art and installations will also be explored. Visual artists to be discussed include Marcel Duchamp, Brian O’Doherty, Joseph Beuys, Alice Maher, Michael Craig-Martin, Kathy Pendergast, Dorothy Cross and Jesse Jones. From Marcel Duchamp to Brian O'Doherty and Joseph Beuys, and throughout the 1960s and 1970s to today, Conceptual Art refers to an artistic practice where artists avail of whatever form- including language, text, performance, found and ephemeral objects – they believe is the most appropriate to putting their ideas across. For many artists, the primacy of the idea over the physical art object also has a strong socio-political dimension to the work they produce and is a reaction to the commodification of art, the autonomy of the museum and how art is traditionally presented. These illustrated talks are taking place in person at the Hugh Lane Gallery or participants can choose to attend live online. A meeting ID will be sent to all participants each week. Fee: €90, advance booking required via Eventbrite.

Very good, finally went to the top floor to dry a pint of beer and not even a peanut. It was worse than a previous Boston brewery tour to enter the workshop.

The most worthwhile attraction in Dublin, there are three worthwhile attractions: the first is the Book of Kells, which is the national treasure of Ireland, but you must listen to the audio guide, otherwise you will not understand the preciousness of this scripture; the second is the library gallery, which is the filming location of the Harry Potter movie, and it is also very quaint and unique; the third is the oldest harp in Ireland. In general, the tour is very exciting, the small disadvantage is that the price of Ctrip is slightly more expensive than the local ticket price, and the cost performance is not very high.

Dublin Castle has some long royal history, and the attractions are very good and worth a visit. On-site tickets only sell 8 euros (60 years old and 6 euros). Trip.com over 60 years old tickets cost 160 yuan, which is 3 times the scene. Too expensive! ! ! Affected my high trust and goodwill for Trip.com ! ! !

This Catholic church in Dublin has a long history and is a landmark building in Dublin. Both the inside and the outside are very exquisitely built.

Ireland is a temperate marine climate area, so vegetation coverage is very high. This green, from south to north, from east to west, wraps the color of the island, clear and clear as jade. Irish green is fascinating, but Irish weather is very depressing. When I came, I said a joke, Ireland 365 days, 300 days of rain. One of my colleagues talked to the taxi uncle about the weather in Ireland, and the uncle said that God gave Ireland such a beautiful coat, and if he gave him another good weather, it would be jealous of the world.
