The Handball Alley, Newpark, Blackrock, Dublin

Kenneth O’Halloran : Modern Ruins and other stories
through to May 20.

opening on Friday 6 April, 2018

“This new exhibition of by multi award-winning photographer Kenneth O’Halloran shows him at the peak of his powers. It focuses on his colour work from Ireland, and centres on a large installation of his magisterial series ‘The Handball Alley’.
These now silent structures attest to the passing of time and to the changing dynamics of rural communities. Like the dolmens that John Montague offered as a metaphor for the old people of his childhood, these modern ruins are liminal structures, open-air theatres where the ghosts of a lost civilisation linger. ”
