On Tuesday April 26th, The Gallery of Photography in Dublin’s Temple Bar will host a unique one-day event by Gavin Friday. Gavin and graphic designer Pete Reddy commissioned one writer and three photographers to work on the presentation of Gavin’s latest album ‘catholic’.
On display in this exposition:
- Requiem for the Fallen – a short story by Patrick Mc Cabe, inspired by the words, music and world of ‘catholic’.
- ‘catholic’ cover photograph shot by Perry Ogden.
- Inside layout photo works by Maciej Pestka.
- Documentation stills and short movie by Darragh Shanahan.
In recent years, Gavin Friday’s considerable energies have found expression in cinema, in soundtracks and in theatrical performance. With ‘catholic’ – An Exposition, Gavin Friday is making an art intervention, with a one day only gallery installation which will be punctuated by live performances at undisclosed times.
