    corkcitylibraries.ie Events Edition July/August 2019 18 Photo Claire Keogh You hold in your hands a very special publication – the first Events of the New City. On 31 May many months of planning and preparation came to fruition when Ballincollig, Glanmire, and Blarney Libraries joined the City Libraries network. They join the other seven libraries – the City Library on Grand Parade, - Hollyhill, Blackpool and Mayfield libraries on the Northside, as well as Douglas, Tory Top and Bishopstown Libraries south of the river, making a much stronger library network. Cork City Council Libraries do not see the revision of the City Council boundary as the City Council Library Service expanding and, in the process, absorbing three new libraries and the surrounding catchment areas. Rather, we see it as an opportunity to create a new Library Service for a New City. We bring with us all that we as a service have learned in 127 years, our many strengths and achievements. We must be – and will be – open to other ideas and ways of doing things. We will be open to the experiences of the staff and patrons of our new libraries, in Ballincollig, Glanmire, and Blarney. Highlights this summer include Heritage Week, which runs from 17 to 25 August, ‘Branch Out and Read’, our summer reading challenge for kids as well as ‘The Summer School of Creative Writing’ which takes place in the City Library, Ballincollig and Glanmire Libraries. The new city will also see a host of exhibitions on display in all our libraries. Looking forward to seeing you, your family and friends in your local library during the first summer of our New City.

    25 Years Serving the Local Community Mayfield Matter s Mayfield Community Training Centre FREE COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER, HIGHLIGHTING LOCAL NEWS St. Joseph’s Community Association ISSUE 64: Oct/Nov 2012 On 6th November, Mayfield Community Training Centre had an open day to celebrate 25 years of serv- Mayfield Banks Respond to Community Fears We return to the story of the two impending Bank closures planned for Mayfield. There is a palpable disappointment and resentment in the air all around the locality at the decisions taken by senior management at PTSB and AIB in this regard. Given the massive debts run up by our Banks during the “Celtic Tiger” years, these closures are not unexpected, though neither are they desirable. When Mayfield Matters contacted the Permanent Trustee Savings Bank (PTSB) for a comment, we were re-directed to its website. This offered nothing by way of apology to us in Mayfield, and indeed, lest we think that our branch is the only one for the chop, there will be fifteen other closures nationwide as well. Its version of good news is that; “There will be absolutely no change to your existing account(s) and all your account details will stay exactly the same”. If you have a PTSB account in Mayfield, you are directed to go to its North Main Street branch now, apparently for your convenience. The Credit Unions The picture with AIB is much clearer. Its local manager stressed that AIB has been building close links with the Post Office network for several years, seeking to share elements of its services with An Post.

    Dorothy Cross Dorothy Cross B

    Kerlin Gallery Dorothy Cross Dorothy Cross b. 1956, Cork, Ireland Like many of Dorothy Cross’ sculptures, Family (2005) and Right Ball and Left Ball (2007) sees the artist work with found objects, transforming them with characteristic wit and sophistication. Right Ball and Left Ball (2007) presents a pair of deflated footballs, no longer of use, their past buoyancy now anchored in bronze. Emerging from each is a cast of the artist’s hands, index finger extended upwards in a pointed gesture suggesting optimism or aspiration. In Family (2005) we see the artist’s undeniable craft and humour come together. Three spider crabs were found, dead for some time but still together. The intricacies of their form and the oddness of their sideways maneuvres forever cast in bronze. The ‘father’ adorned with an improbable appendage also pointing upwards and away. --- Working in sculpture, film and photography, Dorothy Cross examines the relationship between living beings and the natural world. Living in Connemara, a rural area on Ireland’s west coast, the artist sees the body and nature as sites of constant change, creation and destruction, new and old. This flux emerges as strange and unexpected encounters. Many of Cross’ works incorporate items found on the shore, including animals that die of natural causes. During the 1990s, the artist produced a series of works using cow udders, which drew on the animals' rich store of symbolic associations across cultures to investigate the construction of sexuality Dorothy Cross Right Ball and Left Ball 2007 cast bronze, unique 34 x 20 x 19 cm / 13.4 x 7.9 x 7.5 in 37 x 19 x 17 cm / 14.6 x 7.5 x 6.7 in DC20407A Dorothy Cross Family 2005 cast bronze edition of 2/4 dimensions variable element 1: 38 x 19 x 20 cm / 15 x 7.5 x 7.9 in element 2: 25 x 24 x 13 cm / 9.8 x 9.4 x 5.1 in element 3: 16 x 15 x 13 cm / 6.3 x 5.9 x 5.1 in DC17405-2/4 Dorothy Cross b.
