Eamonn Farrell: Charles Haughey: Power, Politics & Public Image
29 October – November 22
Opening Reception: Thursday 29 October 6.30pm
This new exhibition of photographs by Eamonn Farrell examines the public image of Charles Haughey – the most controversial politician since the foundation of the state. With his Napoleonic manner, driving ambition and extravagant private life, Haughey remains a compelling and divisive figure in the Irish political landscape. As a Taoiseach, he was before his time in understanding the power of the image: he knew how to use photographers to his advantage, and made himself easily available to them. Eamonn Farrell has used this access to capture images that offer real insights into Haughey’s elevated perception of himself.
