Dungarvan and the new Dungarvan Art Trail feature on tonight’s edition (Friday 28th May) of Nationwide on RTE1 at 7:00pm.
Find out how this innovative project has brought new life to beautiful Dungarvan with artist Jean Curran, Creative Ireland Waterford coordinator Katherine Collins and President of the Dungarvan & West Waterford Chamber Of Commerce David Walsh.
Running from May through to September 2021, in various shop windows, the Arts Centre and Library throughout the coastal town of Dungarvan County Waterford. Dungarvan Art Trail is delighted to present The Vertigo Project by internationally acclaimed, locally based, dye transfer printer and artist Jean Curran.
The Dungarvan Art Trail, conceived by Jean Curran, has been brought to life with the generous support of Creative Ireland Waterford, the Arts Office, Waterford City and County Council, as well as the input and openness of local business and property owners.
The Dungarvan Art Trail initiative has created an opportunity for viewers to re-appraise their connection with the space in which the art is displayed and aims to deepen the level of engagement between the community, local business and the artworks.
A series of 18 original handmade dye transfer prints by Irish artist Jean Curran – a work of editing and re-presentation that takes key scenes from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo to reveal the artistry of the film in a fresh and novel way.
Produced with the full co-operation of the Hitchcock estate.
