Others’ Stories 25th August – 1st October 2011 Opening Reception 6pm – 8pm on Thursday 25th August John Baucher, Cecily Brennan, Lisa Byrne, Lesley Cherry, Poshya Kakl, Franc Purg Others’ Stories is an exhibition exploring the nature of the relationship between an artist and his or her subject/s. The Golden Thread Gallery has, since its inception, been interested in how its story relates to the stories of those around them and has subsequently worked hard to examine itself in the context of those it works with, locally, nationally and internationally. Taking six diverse artists, Others’ Stories explores the problems and challenges of attempting to tell the stories of others. Each artist has approached the problem of interpreting another person’s story in a different manner and these works provide a platform for critical debate. The exhibition, featuring John Baucher, Cecily Brennan, Lisa Byrne, Lesley Cherry, Poshya Kakl and Franc Purg, will be accompanied by a series of lunchtime talks and debates every Thursday during the month of September 2011. The talks aim at looking at the history of storytelling in artistic practice and the accounts of artists and participants from projects that have done so.
