This alternative approach to exhibiting might mean that the collection isn’t as practical to digest in one sitting as a conventional display held under one roof, but this is clearly the intention. With participating venues including the likes of Bewley’s, the Powerscourt Centre and seven locations within Trinity College itself, the idea seems to be that you’ll run into the creations by chance as you go about your daily life. You can pick up a map of the featured venues from the Douglas Hyde Gallery or download one from their website – it’s worth keeping one handy so you know where to swing by, if you’re in the area.</span></span></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Having said this, running into the artworks by chance may be easier said than done: as someone who went actively searching for the works, I can testify that they often slip by unnoticed. Often, I was virtually staring right at the piece before I realised it was there. In the Sony Centre on St. Stephen’s Green, I stumbled around the shop for a good ten minutes, avoiding sales-deprived staff desperately persuading me to buy a new laptop, only to realise the video installation I was looking for (Tristan Hutchinson’s ‘Commution’) was in the shop window, facing outwards. At times this became frustrating, however there is a sense of achievement to be felt when you finally spot a piece you’ve been searching for (asking staff is cheating). I imagine the element of surprise felt by those who ‘find’ the works by accident would be equally as pleasing: it’s kind of like a modern art treasure hunt.</span></span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span> <br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">After all, though it might make them more elusive, it is the works’ small scales, and their tendencies to blend into their surroundings, which make them so special. Whilst many artworks are designed to take centre stage, distracting attention away from their surroundings and onto the piece itself, these understated creations prefer to complement their setting. For example, Paul Hickey’s ‘Weave #4’ (a collection of Dulux paint swatches intertwined around the fencing of Trinity’s tennis courts) harmonises with the autumnal tones of the trees surrounding it, subtly reflecting the many hues found in the leaves at this time of year. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />

</span></span> <br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Other pieces simulate their surroundings in a more direct way – Maggie Madden’s polychromatic model of a cityscape, comprising of multicore telephone wire, sits amidst real architectural models by Eileen Gray in the foyer of the Irish Architectural Archive (Merrion Square). Likewise, the glass cabinets of geological artefacts housed in Trinity’s Museum Building are somewhat comically (though no less beautifully) mimicked by Laura McMorrow’s ‘Cardboard Rocks’ – an assortment of recycled cardboard boxes with precious stones and fossils painted on them, housed in a museum-esque glass case. Rather than competing with and overriding their surroundings, these pieces serve to highlight the beauty of the objects they imitate, and cause the viewer to take a second look at what may otherwise have been passed by unnoticed. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span> <br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This is one of the advantages of the </span></span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Preponderance...</span></span></i></span><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> project’s novel approach to displaying works: each piece is carefully designed to integrate into its venue – and the venues are often worthy of admiration in themselves, making the whole experience more rounded. This is a feat which would be hard to achieve within the bare, whitewashed walls of a gallery. In addition, the collaborative style of the project means we not only encounter more variety in the venues, but also more artists, each with a different approach to the task. A wider variety of materials than usual are utilised – from the traditional oil-on-canvas (used on Gillian Lawler’s untitled piece in the Freemasons Hall) to concrete, film and, frequently, </span></span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">“</span></span></span><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">mixed media</span></span></span><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">”</span></span></span><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> – which can mean anything from discarded erasers to empty packets of King’s Crisps. All of them, however unlikely they may seem as artists’ materials, are put to surprisingly good use. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span> <br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Finally, the mood of the artworks, and the effect they have upon the viewer, will also, naturally, vary. Niall de Buitlear’s sentimental ‘Found Bookmark Project’ in the National Library will bring a smile to even the dreariest face – the forgotten bookmarks of hundreds of library users are collected and displayed (mostly via video, though some arranged on a table-top). Of all the artworks, this is perhaps the most personal, especially since handwritten notes feature prominently in the collection, evoking daydreams of who left them there...and perhaps a little paranoia that my own scribblings aren’t amongst them somewhere. Some of the artworks bear hints of wit and irony (‘Cardboard Rocks’), some carry messages (‘Nothing lasts forever’ by Laura Fitzgerald, to be found in Road Records), whilst others are simply beautiful to look at: Beth O’Halloran’s ‘Let’s go home, little bear’, in Blooming Amazing, is as pretty as the flowers which surround it. </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span> <br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Unfortunately, it’s probably a fair assumption that the vast majority of people who pass by these creations may fail to even notice them. But those who are attentive to their surroundings, and who stop to appreciate the works, will be rewarded. This is perhaps the overriding message of the project: to encourage us to take the time to observe the minute; to pay attention to detail; to celebrate our small successes. Each of these understated artworks serves to turn our attention back to these little things in life that we so frequently neglect, in our frantic search for grandiosity and ‘the bigger picture’. So in future, when you’re out wandering around town, try to keep your eyes peeled – whether it’s for one of the artworks exhibited in </span></span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Preponderance of the Small</span></span></i></span><span lang="RU"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">, or for the many ignored and overlooked objects of beauty the project celebrates, and which are around us everywhere. Sometimes in life, it’s good to think small.</span></span></span><br />

The three-dimensional drawing is painstakingly built up by the artist, with lines of wire reminiscent of architectural blueprints for a building. This is also hinted at by the linear patterns created on the Perspex upon which the piece sits.

The short film is played on a loop, echoing the repetitive nature of its subject matter.</span></span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7858525309086974945.post-85759061770529477402009-10-23T16:20:00.004+01:002009-10-23T16:26:07.379+01:00Mark Beatty<b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">'Untitled'</span></span></i></b><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Dining Hall, Trinity College</span></span></b></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVDIe398j3nF9hu_vIO9pc6izaZpcOj6Tv8GyVBOHT4LG4YeIvy4JPwUoxiGpovtvOsqAOUP23tgWgsJi8utGdXlB3rL6h3pmoSGvUuGFiuS2Urso9V4G6Elux-WhVTLghhIkLrmHS8Cg/s1600-h/IMG_3059.JPG"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVDIe398j3nF9hu_vIO9pc6izaZpcOj6Tv8GyVBOHT4LG4YeIvy4JPwUoxiGpovtvOsqAOUP23tgWgsJi8utGdXlB3rL6h3pmoSGvUuGFiuS2Urso9V4G6Elux-WhVTLghhIkLrmHS8Cg/s400/IMG_3059.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395816437344485506" /></span></span></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVDIe398j3nF9hu_vIO9pc6izaZpcOj6Tv8GyVBOHT4LG4YeIvy4JPwUoxiGpovtvOsqAOUP23tgWgsJi8utGdXlB3rL6h3pmoSGvUuGFiuS2Urso9V4G6Elux-WhVTLghhIkLrmHS8Cg/s1600-h/IMG_3059.JPG"></a><br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV-dKPMDLUc-W89IVf0IvXH1uTUe4tjUqrphm8o9xVopWoDSvVtD7rbJgFhjYLOaRc8os5Uk6j-lgy5QAIaMb-HHT35bz_1z_uZxdMcp85dkDRlrMBA97THpIMAZw-F0VDJpacDFBbw7E/s1600-h/IMG_3056.JPG"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV-dKPMDLUc-W89IVf0IvXH1uTUe4tjUqrphm8o9xVopWoDSvVtD7rbJgFhjYLOaRc8os5Uk6j-lgy5QAIaMb-HHT35bz_1z_uZxdMcp85dkDRlrMBA97THpIMAZw-F0VDJpacDFBbw7E/s400/IMG_3056.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395816367505583810" /></span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 9.0px Monaco"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Mark Beatty’s drawings are the combination of many small individual lines and shapes which accumulate to create an overall image. Each mark is a building block to an unknown outcome that is only realized once the artist has finished the piece. With this meditative approach, the work grows slowly as the artist concentrates on adding each tiny mark. Beatty says his work “<i>is alive while it is being processed and a relic when it is complete</i>” suggesting the intrinsic importance of the act of drawing to his practice.</span></span></p></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7858525309086974945.post-68889261235266952482009-10-23T13:02:00.003+01:002009-10-23T13:05:04.709+01:00Laura McMorrow<b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">'Cardboard Rocks'</span></span></i></b><div><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Museum Building, Trinity College</span></span></b></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoap0N8OFM9gau22iF-WDOTVQUcoU-3zRZTbx95CcIuddFiHhXJUEqnqpiR4MHKmfhYRahq5q__rijLR5tj8v6Fc69X56wq0WczWxr-ZIEdSrN1H5TL5wDslX-wKQel7kNp6AJqPdMo8s/s1600-h/IMG_3048.JPG"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoap0N8OFM9gau22iF-WDOTVQUcoU-3zRZTbx95CcIuddFiHhXJUEqnqpiR4MHKmfhYRahq5q__rijLR5tj8v6Fc69X56wq0WczWxr-ZIEdSrN1H5TL5wDslX-wKQel7kNp6AJqPdMo8s/s400/IMG_3048.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395764792914871570" /></span></span></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoap0N8OFM9gau22iF-WDOTVQUcoU-3zRZTbx95CcIuddFiHhXJUEqnqpiR4MHKmfhYRahq5q__rijLR5tj8v6Fc69X56wq0WczWxr-ZIEdSrN1H5TL5wDslX-wKQel7kNp6AJqPdMo8s/s1600-h/IMG_3048.JPG"></a><br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinzOcF2BTci-K95uRJxOjIpVusITkONJUQ0ThQk2eUr5ytIHOD9fOj2F3C9-wVHySSKvk0Gjj9rRycJ4CUPMtjFnE-QbBg43UBpSGuqvGbKIobCMHY7hKheSC6cl5bRolx4mMpHiypzeY/s1600-h/IMG_3050.JPG"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinzOcF2BTci-K95uRJxOjIpVusITkONJUQ0ThQk2eUr5ytIHOD9fOj2F3C9-wVHySSKvk0Gjj9rRycJ4CUPMtjFnE-QbBg43UBpSGuqvGbKIobCMHY7hKheSC6cl5bRolx4mMpHiypzeY/s400/IMG_3050.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395764781768160130" /></span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><br /></span></span></div><div><!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoBodyText"><span lang="EN-GB"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;">Found pieces of cardboard, paper and inside-out boxes are rescued from mundanity in Laura’s exquisitely detailed drawings and paintings.
