Visual Art

January Exhibition: 11th January – Friday 4th February 2005.
WALTER VERLING HRHA PAINTINGS
A long and well established Limerick-based painter Verling puts before Limerick audiences a selection of recent works placed within the context of works that, over the years, he has preferred to keep to himself, close at hand – what amounts to his own personal collection of his work. For many people Verling’s work seems decidedly in the tradition of Impressionism, Pre-modern in its commitment to on–the-spot landscape painting; first-hand, direct, small scale works that celebrate the shapes and colours found in nature still there for us in the rural, suburban world. Yet his work shows great emphasis on an intuitive grasp of the importance of pattern and structure as the design means of raising shape and colour into expressive composition. In this way, his way, this solo shows demonstrates that Verling’s work comes well within the realm of Modernism. Belltable Arts Centre

opens Monday 7th February at 6 p.m. Exhibition 8 February-14th March
CONTEMPORARY COUNTERPARTS 2005
This survey of contemporary practice brings before Limerick audiences the varied work of Irish born/based artists; many have or have had close Limerick connections. All of them are a generation or more behind Verling (or some may say ‘ahead’?). Their work unambiguously relates to one or more of the central strands of Modernism. They can be understood to fit within one or another of the niches of Post-modernism; some may be even said to belong to “Para”-modernism. (Since the roster of the participating artists has at the printing of this programme yet to be completed, the names will be held for announcement at a later date). Belltable Arts Centre

Dance

Friday 4th February
'MamusKa Night' is an informal event giving emphasis on trying out rather then doing, yet aiming to present quality works that arouse interest and inspire the audience. Previous MamusKa nights have included dance, theatre, performance, installations and video pieces. Audience participation is free and open to the public. MamusKa Night is a bi-monthly event organised by Daghdha Dance Company. Limerick Boat Club:

Saturday 5th February
French Chanson Meets Russian Gypsy. Caroline Moreau and Oleg Ponomarev join forces to produce a dazzling evening’s entertainment of French Chanson and World Gypsy Music. A versatile performer with an extraordinary voice and a deep understanding of her material – both musically and lyrically – Moreau has gone from strength to strength. Not so much fusion as a head-to-head between two of the most dynamic musical performers in this country, the show promises an evening of passion, yearning, laughter, tears and – above all – heart-stopping, foot-stamping, mind-blowing music.
