REWIND<<FASTFORWARD>>RECORD at Galway Arts Centre
2nd - 17th September 2022, in collaboration with Array Collective
As part of Galway Arts Centre's presentation of Array Collective's 2021 Turner Prize winning The Druthaib's Ball, Galway Arts Centre presents a weekly series of public events to which we have contributed, working with and alongside members of Array Collective and inviting LGBTQ+ activists to deliver site-specific and contextual talks. A number of these events are scheduled to take place in the Turner Prize winning installation or síbín at Nuns' Island Theatre. Array's síbín provides a new and exciting setting for RFR to respond to and work within, generating ideas and creating new work to add to our evolving and expanding contemporary queer archive.
