We’re wrapping up our series of interviews with the ICA’s 2023 Foster Prize Winners with artist Venetia Dale. As a metalsmith and sculptor, Dale’s work looks at objects— their utility, people’s relationship to the things in their lives—what they need, what they delight in, and what they’ve relegated to the junk drawer. Dale is also interested in the incomplete and the imperfect — themes that she’s been exploring since she became a mother–and an artist interrupted.
Then we segue into a Celtic Sojourn. The Burren is keeping the legacy of Brian O’Donovan alive by way of an ongoing legacy series. We’ll talk to local musicians Matt and Shannon Heaton about their upcoming performance.
Finally, independent curator Pedro Alonzo is here to talk about Keith Haring and how his influence lives on today in the street art that is breathing life into our public spaces and shaking us out of our complacency.
