Session 2, the first photos…

Our second session got off to a fast start with everyone producing some great work in our first three days, late night dance parties in the studio and some impressive marshmallow and spaghetti structures. Congrats to Victoria, Mary-Kate, Grace and Charlotte for their winning effort.

Our two day trip to Dublin took us to the Irish Museum of Modern Art where we saw the work of Carlos Garaicoa and had a studio visit with former Cow House resident artist Aoife Collins. Other highlights during our stay included the Gallery of Photography, Chester Beatty Library, the Book of Kells at Trinity College and of course ice cream and Top Shop.

Inspired by watching Francis Ford Coppola’s new film Tetro in Dublin, upon returning to the studio we decided to watch his masterpiece, The Godfather. This past Sunday we were treated to an artist talk by photo realist painter Robert Cottingham. We were thrilled to see such a great turnout for the event, and were even paid a visit by last years visiting artist Darragh Casey.
