The Golden Bough, Dublin City Gallery the Hugh Lane
Step inside now step inside
13th June - 13th September


Applying the Golden Bough theme as underlining support structure for showcasing significant art practices, Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane has invited distinguished contemporary artists to exhibit in Gallery Eight of Charlemont House. The Golden Bough suite continues with new work by artist Brian Duggan. In this major new body of work, Duggan responds to the particular architecture of gallery eight and its unique context. The installation inserts a bisected carnival motordrome into the gallery and its presence both completes the internal loop, but also interrupts the classical space.
