Q.2 COUNCILLOR RUAIRI MC GINGLEY To ask the Chief Executive to arrange for urgent repair (details supplied) Q.3 COUNCILLOR TINA MAC VEIGH To ask the Chief Executive to provide this Councillor with a report outlining all senior citizen accommodation currently being built or planned in each of the five areas of the city and to include expected completion dates. Q.4 COUNCILLOR DAMIAN O’FARRELL To ask the Chief Executive (details supplied) Q.5 COUNCILLOR RAY MC HUGH To ask the Chief Executive to arrange for pedestrian lights to be installed at the intersection (details supplied) as this is a very dangerous junction for pedestrians. Q.6 COUNCILLOR RAY MC HUGH To ask the Chief Executive to examine the possibility of using the Crumlin area office as a one stop shop for Hap and the possibility of an assessment officer visit once a week to the area office. This I believe would save people from the area from travelling into town and free up pressure of the staff in head office. Q.7 COUNCILLOR RAY MC HUGH To ask the Chief Executive to arrange for the Graffiti to be removed from the bin and lamppost outside the church on St Marys Road, Crumlin. Q.8 COUNCILLOR CRIONA NI DHALAIGH To ask the Chief Executive to investigate the following matter (details supplied) and what if anything can be done to address this. If it requires a change in legislation could he please forward the matter to the relevant SPC to progress. Q.9 COUNCILLOR CRIONA NÍ DHALAIGH To ask the Chief Executive to report on the following (details supplied) Q.10 COUNCILLOR RAY MC HUGH To ask the Chief Executive to examine the possibility of extending the red light time at (details supplied) before the perpendicular green light comes on; this would allow regular commuters and School Walkers time to cross safely. I have requested a pedestrian light at this junction extending the red light time would help in the meantime. Q.11 COUNCILLOR JOHN LYONS To ask the Chief Executive to confirm that the listing process (i.e. process for the addition of buildings to record of protected structures) for the five buildings within the Moore Street Battlefield (i.e the five properties included in my motion passed at the City Council in June 2015 - the O’Brien’s Mineral Water Building, Henry Place, the White House, Henry Place, No 10 Moore Street, the bottling stores at the rear of 10 Page 5 Moore Street and Moore Lane and Hanlons premises at 20 - 21 Moore Street) is proceeding following the unanimous vote in favour of this action at last Month's City Council meeting and to further confirm that the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, all prescribed bodies and Hammersons have been duly notified. Will the Chief Executive further confirm that the buildings in question have already been subject to external and internal assessment through The Shaffrey Report for Dublin City Council, The Myles Battlefield Report for Chartered Land and in the partially completed Kelly Report commissioned by Dublin City Council itself, the latter report having been commissioned on foot of the motion adopted by the City Council in June 2015.

  • Curated by Michael Dempsey Sara Reisman Introduction
    Curated by Michael Dempsey Sara Reisman Introduction SELECT AN ARTIST t Lieven De Boeck Elaine Byrne John Byrne Tony Cokes Chto Delat Dor Guez Lawrence Abu Hamdan Dragana Juriši´c Ari Marcopoulos Raqs Media Collective Dermot Seymour Mark Wallinger “In the year 2000 there was a total of fifteen fortified border walls and fences between sovereign nations. Today, physical barriers at sixty-three borders divide nations across four continents.” — Lawrence Abu Hamdan, 2018 Introduction Historically, borders tend to be the location of international trouble spots. Prior to the global lockdown, there was a utopian vision of open borders, alongside the reality of a populist push towards border fortification. This dichotomy has now been eclipsed by a pandemic that doesn’t respect borders. Politicisation of the pandemic, displacement of people, and contagion, as well as the drive towards an ever-increasing economic globalisation, have created further complex contradictions. The curatorial idea for the exhibition Worlds Without End (WWE) was first conceived a year ago as a research-based collaboration between Sara Reisman, Executive and Artistic Director of the Shelley & Donald Rubin Foundation, New York and Michael Dempsey, Head of Exhibitions, Hugh Lane Gallery, who are the co-curators of WWE. WWE is a visual dialogue on the impact of borders on individuals and communities. The twelve participating artists are drawn from different regional traditions and challenge our perceptions of national identities, envisioning utopian possibilities for understanding the place of borders, their proliferation and seeming obsolescence, in contemporary society. These artists reveal their deep interest in current geo-political positions and social conditions with works that interrogate power structures, positions of privilege and human rights issues.

  • Cumann Na Mban: During the Easter Rising
    Cumann na mBan: During the Easter Rising Dylan Savoie Junior Division Individual Documentary Process Paper: 500 words Once I learned about National History Day, I immediately wanted to do something related to my Irish heritage seeing as my mother was born in Ireland. In my research, I found the Easter Rising. Now that I had narrowed my selection down, I began to dig deeper, and I came across an Irish women's group, Cumann na mBan, that helped greatly in the Rising but has gone largely unnoticed in history. I tried to have a wide range of research. First, I began by searching for a video about Cumann na mBan. I had found an RTE documentary on the Easter Rising of 1916. It was in that documentary that I came across Fr. Oliver Rafferty, a professor at Boston College. I was able to obtain his email address, contact him, and we had a phone interview. I searched websites and books at my local and Boston Public Library, taking notes and citing them in Noodletools as I went. The Burns Library at Boston College has the most extensive Irish History collection outside of Ireland, so in January, I went there too and was able to obtain many primary sources. In February, I went to Boston College and interviewed Fr. Rafferty in person. I was able to talk with him and combine what I had learned in my research to understand my topic in more depth than I had before. After I collected my research, I decided that my project would be best represented in the form of a documentary.

  • 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.
