    Kanturk Arts Festival

    Saturday August 17 one of many events for Cork Heritage Open Day

    www.corkheritageopenday.ieCork Heritage Day at Cork Printmakers , Backwater Artists Studio and The Lavit Gallery
    Open 2pm – 4pm
    Tour 2pm
    Screening and Panel Discussion 3pm

    This event consists of a tour at 2pm of the building including studios and galleries, followed at 3pm by a screening of the work A Reconfigured Ruin by artist Marianne Keating and a panel discussion with the artist, Archeological Historian Caen Harris, Elaine Coakley, Director Backwater Artist Group and Maeve Lynch, Gallery and Outreach Manager of Cork Printmakers. This work was commissioned for Wandesford Quay, and the artist discusses its significance in the context of her practice.

    A Reconfigured Ruin addresses the architectural and symbolic features of Wandesford Quay. Keating excavates the ‘biography’ of the building through an archival examination of the unrecorded biography of its past workers, highlighting the connections of trade and labour that have been shaping Cork’s collective identity and imagination.

    Backwater Artist Studios, Cork Printmakers and the The Lavit Gallery are located on Wandesford Quay. This three-bay, four-storey warehouse was originally built around 1840 and restored in 1995. Its first use was as a grain store, probably for the nearby distillery. Subsequently it became a timber yard and Coleman’s Printers.

    Backwater Artists Group is an artists studio complex that offers facilities for artists to produce and present art. Cork Printmakers is a print studio that offers artists and publics a creative and technical environment in which to make and engage with art. The Lavit Gallery showcases art made by Cork-based and national artists.
