Rich Gilligan: Driftwood Editions Book Launch & Exhibition


 

Photographer Rich Gilligan launches his new book All Sorts of Impossible Things in our new studio space as part of
our 'Hen's Teeth Summer Series'. In addition to the book launch, a selection of Rich’s photography from the book
will be exhibited. The evening will also feature an artist talk with Rich in the space.

The show will launch on May 12th at 18:00 and run until May 15th at Hen's Teeth Studio, Block A, New Mill, Mill St, Dublin 8, D08 NN5V

 

All Sorts of Impossible Things is a personal body of work exploring the static hum and unique rhythm of everyday life in the city of Newburgh, New York. These photographs are an observation of the collective anxiety of a city caught between a wave of intense regeneration and a long history of economic struggle.

Gilligan’s almost forensic and fictional approach creates an ambiguous space where the viewer is left to navigate their own personal journey through a landscape of uncertainty and confusion. This sense of disorientation and fleeting physical beauty produces an atmosphere that is as familiar and comforting as it is out of reach.

 

Driftwood Editions is an independent publisher producing limited editions of work they find interesting worldwide by Rich Gilligan.
