    Focus On Limerick • Limerick City Gallery of Art _________________________________________________________________ 12th November 2008 Announcing Two Major Limerick Group Exhibitions Seeing Georgian Limerick and Presence 08 for the Winter Season. Seeing Georgian Limerick, a beautiful photographic exhibition of Georgian Limerick celebrates the City while Presence 08 celebrates the wealth of Limerick’s artistic talent. _____________________________________________________________________ 1. Exhibition Opening: Seeing Georgian Limerick Kieran CLANCY Sean LYNCH Eamonn O’MAHONY Deirdre POWER 27th Nov – 4th Jan 2009 Limerick City Gallery of Art in association with Limerick Chapter of the Irish Georgian Society is delighted to announce Seeing Georgian Limerick, a jointly commissioned exhibition to commemorate 50 years of the Irish Georgian Society. Four artists Kieran Clancy, Sean Lynch, Eamonn O’Mahony, Deirdre Power have been invited to photograph Georgian Limerick. The historic and commercial centre of Limerick, the Georgian new town is extremely familiar, although many of the buildings are underused and have been allowed to decay. The exhibition celebrates the architectural character and the historic importance of the townscape, which are often not fully recognized. To ask the four artists to photograph what they see in Georgian Limerick was an invitation to reveal what has been hidden by familiarity and neglect; architectural coherence, moments of monumentality. Images can show what is normally unseen; the richness of the interior decoration, the life of the lanes. Taken from oblique perspectives the photographs have the potential to uncover an unfamiliar Georgian Limerick. With the power of photography to focus attention and even to transform the ordinary and taken-for-granted it is hoped that the exhibition will help to define the character and value of Georgian Limerick.

  • Where Do Your Jeans Come From? Emilia Is 24 Years Old and Works in a Factory Which Makes Fashion Jeans in Asia
    Read the text. Where do your jeans come from? Emilia is 24 years old and works in a factory which makes fashion jeans in Asia. She lives in a camp for the workers near the factory. She works 75 hours a week. In Europe the average working week is 35–40 hours a week. Emilia earns $5 a day which is less than the minimum wage. She finds it difficult to buy enough food to eat. The minimum wage in the UK is £5 per hour. Emilia works 7 days a week and only gets time off a couple of times a year. ‘Another terrible thing is the production quotas. I have to make a certain number of pairs of jeans every day. So I work and sleep. Every day is like that.’ she says. So Emilia does overtime without being paid. She also cannot join a union. ‘Once, a group of workers went on strike to ask for better wages and a transport and food allowance. All of them were sacked.’ But it doesn’t have to be like that From Africa to America, companies and consumers are changing. Following criticism of sweatshops (factories where workers work in terrible conditions for very low pay), there is increasing interest in ethical clothing – clothing which doesn’t exploit the workers who made it and recognises their rights like: Think English Pre-Intermediate • Unit 3 p.29 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE • a decent wage • paid holidays • the right to join a union • a clean and healthy working environment. British shoppers spent $50 million on ethical products in 2005.

The Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland, as the national association representing members across the surveying disciplines, has in recent years developed rapidly and reorganised into a vibrant professional body, with over 5,500 members, playing an active role in national development. Ireland has a long and notable history of surveying and measurement from the carefully aligned network of hill-top monuments constructed over 5,000 years ago, to the completion of the world’s first large-scale national mapping in the mid nineteenth century and, in the last decade, the National Seabed Survey that ranks amongst the largest marine mapping programmes undertaken anywhere in the world. Meanwhile, Ireland has one of the most open economies in the world and most of the major international IT companies have established bases in Ireland. At the same time, young Irish graduates can be found bringing their skills and enthusiasm to all corners of the world and, in many cases, returning home enriched professionally and culturally by their time abroad.

Following its sensational arrival, the politics of popular musical culture has however moved from the shared experience of protest movements and picket lines and to an individualised and celebrified consumerist experience. As a consequence what emerged, as a controversial and subversive phenomenon, has been de-fanged and transformed into a mechanism of establishment support.

Though difficult at times to live by, this simple but powerful idea in action will always deliver results. On a daily basis, the enormous task with the provision of vital city and community services, challenges us to remain mindful in our understanding of the basic principals that make a successful city. At the very core of this idea is the realisation that our vision and plans are most effective when they spring from the realisation that cities evolve organically and from within. As always our Local Government leadership and objectives of quality social and economic community support builds most effectively on a solid foundation of community strength and harmony.
