Bárbara Wagner and Benjamin de Burca: One Hundred Steps is our new exhibition, featuring a film that addresses connections between Irish and North African cultures, language, architecture, and colonial legacies through performances set in venues in County Cork and Marseille.

'I am now a saint. I was canonized in Cork. This is my supreme narcissistic moment, in which my faith in myself is completely justified communally.'

Artforum's incisive account of Brian O'Doherty's intellectual and artistic significance is just one of multiple tributes paid to him. It was lovely to read a reference to, and see a photograph taken at, SIRIUS.

RIP Irish artist, critic, Brian O’Doherty. I just reread the piece I wrote for The Sunday Times Ireland about the re-reveal of his murals Sirius Arts Centre in 2018, and realised it reads almost like an obituary. He was 94. thetimes.co.uk/article/57fc92…

We are saddened by the news of the death of Brian O’Doherty, one of Ireland's most influential artists. We are honoured to have collaborated with him on the production of his outstanding mural One here now - the Ogham Cycle' (1995-96, restored in 2018). May he rest in peace.
