SEA VOICES The Art of Jeff Hoare
This film celebrates British artist Jeff Hoare's lifelong engagement with the elemental power of the ocean. His canvases are created in the sea, their colours and forms shaped and refined by the ebb and flow of the tide and the raw energy of the wind and rain. This footage was captured on Folkestone beach by art dealer Robin Saikia, whose partner Vicki Carpenter is seen helping Jeff Hoare prepare paint and canvas for the unique ritual of 'sea painting' in the incoming tide. Jeff Hoare was born in 1923 and studied at the Chelsea School of Art and at the Royal College. From 1963 until 1995 he taught painting and drawing at Saint Martins and at Camberwell. He has directed art workshops all over the world, in Belgrade, Paris, Canada and Cameroun, and in 1985 he founded the Aegean School of Art in Kos. He has exhibited widely in Britain, the USA and Europe, with solo shows in London, Paris, New York and San Francisco.

INTERVIEW WITH ARTIST SONG DONG ON 'WASTE NOT' AT CARRIAGEWORKS
Carriageworks and 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art in Association with Sydney Festival present
SONG DONG: WASTE NOT
From his family home in Beijing, to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Waste Not is a transformative installation by one of China's pre-eminent artists, Song Dong. Conceived by the artist following the death of his father, the work represents his mother's process of mourning and remembrance. Consisting of the entire contents of her house, Waste Not reflects a journey of hardship and grief, resulting in a display of personal resilience and ultimately a celebration of life.
The official opening of Waste Not was at Carriageworks, 4 -- 7pm, Sat 5 Jan 2013.
Deeply moving... a work of art that is every bit as much about loss as it is about muchness The New York Times
Coinciding with Waste Not is Song Dong's Dad and Mum, Don't Worry About Us, We are All Well, a survey of his work from the last three decades at 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art.

Flexible Seating and Self Reg by McNorty
Flexible seating is a great way to mirror and reflect our teaching values and methods in the classroom. What better way to teach collaboration, inquiry, hands on learning and problem solving with a little wiggle room. And empowering students by letting them make their own choices.

Opportunities to grow philanthropic support of the arts must be seized - Deenihan
Jimmy Deenihan, Minister for Arts, has told a major conference on Philanthropy and the Arts that the constraints on the taxpayer mean that innovative ways to address funding issues in the arts and culture sector must be sought, and has said that philanthropy must become a mainstay of funding for the future.
Minister Deenihan commented:
We know that Ireland is one of the great philanthropic countries of the world. It is a core characteristic of ours -- and one that we rate highly -- that we take an interest in others, and that we support their work and efforts through the donation of our time or our money.
Today, it is estimated that total philanthropic income in Ireland is in excess of half a billion euro annually. This is a very sizable amount for a country of our size. However, the arts sector in Ireland receives only approximately 0.6% of this amount. This is something we have to challenge and to change....
I have driven and encouraged policy development on philanthropy through two new schemes, each quite different from the other -- the Philanthropy Leverage Initiative operated by my Department and the RAISE Programme operated by the Arts Council.
Through these schemes I want to incentivise organisations to grow their funding by augmenting private sponsorship with taxpayer funding. I also want groups to build the skills -- and confidence -- to seek long term funding partnerships with the private sector.
Our new focus on philanthropy is not simply about helping organisations to function through the downturn. I firmly believe that philanthropy should grow to be a mainstay of arts and culture funding for the years and decades ahead, even when State funding to arts and culture begins to increase again at some point in the future.
Speakers at the conference included Peter Keegan (Bank of America Merill Lynch), Caitriona Fottrell (Ireland Funds), John R. Healy (Forum on Philanthropy), Orlaith McBride (Arts Council), Dennis O'Connor (RAISE), Liam Keogh (Revenue Commissioners), Frances McGee (National Archives of Ireland), Stuart McLaughlin (Business to Arts), Trevor White (Little Museum of Dublin), Patrick T. Murphy (RHA), Breda Kennedy (Independent Consultant, Arts and Culture) and Patrick Sutton (Smock Alley Theatre).

GIAF First Thought Talk: Clare Daly, Mick Wallace & Vincent Browne
Galway International Arts Festival (GIAF) is more than one of Europe's most engaging summer arts festivals. It also produces work throughout the year and offers its popular First Thought Talks series each Autumn. First Thought Talks go behind the curtain to look at the challenges we face in the world today, utilising live discussions with experts in their fields.
Clare Daly and Mick Wallace have been TDs for, respectively, Dublin North and Wexford from 2011 to 2019, when they were elected as MEPs for Dublin and South. Since 2011, they have worked on many campaigns, including opposition to austerity, protesting US military aircraft stopping at Shannon Airport, highlighting policing issues and shining a light on practices employed by NAMA’s in selling off its property portfolio. In this GIAF First Thought Talk, Daly and Wallace are in conversation with Vincent Browne, probably Ireland’s best-known journalist.
This First Thought Talk, entitled From Ireland to Europe: What Challenges for Two Left Wing MEPs?, took place on 12 October 2019 at NUI Galway's Aula Maxima.

'On The Edge' Art Exhibition
Northern Irish artist, Bronagh Lawson, injected a dose of culture into Belfast when she launched her exhibition On the Edge on 17 September 2009 at the City East Business Centre.
The exhibition, which takes place on the edge of the East Belfast peace line, showcases the talents of seven local artists who have captured Belfast in 2009 with an eclectic mix of paintings, installation, drawing, video and photography.
Bronagh is currently the Artist-in-Residence at the City East Business Centre and this is the first project that she has curated during her residency at the centre. She feels that the location of the exhibition is paramount to the underlying message of her work:
Ive always felt a pull towards interface areas and, having spent thirteen years working on social development projects within these areas and seeing what some of these people have gone through, I wanted to share my experiences artistically.
The exhibition space at the City East comprises of four rooms with floor-to-ceiling views of the East Belfast Peaceline and provides a living portrait of a community existing in an interface area in 2009.
All of the exhibiting artists are unique in their backgrounds and their creativity but the one thing they all have in common is that they are on the edge. On the edge of adversity, of discovery and of an immerging culture in Northern Ireland.
Exhibiting artist, Ngaire Jackson, partook in Antony Gormleys Fourth Plinth Project in London this summer and will showcase her experience in the form of a rubbing she took while on the plinth:
I stood on the plinth, drew around my feet and took a 13ft by 14ft rubbing. The spaces where my feet have been provide the viewer with an insight into how it feels to be in the spotlight.
I feel that Belfasts art culture is still very much underground and I think that we should look to cities like London and Glasgow, whose art scenes are continuously evolving, for inspiration.
This exhibition encourages people from all communities within Northern Ireland to come together through art and to embrace diversity.
On the Edge will be exhibiting at the City East Business Centre until 31 October 2009. To arrange a private viewing, please phone Bronagh on +44 (0)79 847 847 35. Groups are welcome too. More at BronaghLawson.com
