The conference brings together a unique network of international scholars and community-based practitioners in an effort to broaden our understanding of the role of space and place in the construction of modern Irish culture and identity at home and abroad. Conference panel sessions and plenary lectures will take place at NUI Galway, with a public Community Mapping Workshop hosted by the Galway City Museum, Saturday 29 March 2014.

For details of how to be involved and the full itinerary for 2014 download the PDF August 21st – September 20th, 2014Two Gardens These works are inspired by distinctly different gardens, one the first century BCE cycle of Roman frescoes known as Livia’s Garden Room in the National Roman Museum. The second is the artist’s garden in Minnesota. The frescoes were found in a subterranean room in a villa belonging to Livia, the wife of Emperor Augustus. The frescoes create the illusion of being surrounded by a garden. Joyce Lyon’s paintings in response to Livia’s Garden are meditations on the skill of the anonymous Roman painters who created the frescoes and homage to the changes wrought by time. Juxtaposed to these works are paintings of her contemporary garden focusing on the fugitive quality of light and the tension between human desire and nature’s independence. 6th September, 2014The Big Park Draw Julian Gregg, Charlotte Murray and David Smith invite members of the community to the third, and final, event of 2014, where they can draw and sketch in the inspiring surroundings of Victoria Park.
