About this event
‘Where To Start and What To Include? Mapping the history/ies of Irish graphic design’
Dr Linda King will present this illustrated talk to coincide with the ongoing exhibition ‘Poster Boys: The Work of Kevin Scally and Brendan Foreman for the Abbey Theatre’.
Curated by Dr Linda King and showcasing the Museum’s collection of Abbey Theatre posters from the 1970s-1980s, this exhibition focusses on the two main posters designers for the Abbey during this period, Kevin Scally and Brendan Foreman, and their methods of visually interpreting a stage production. Their work represents both the modernisation of the national theatre and the burgeoning culture of graphic design in Ireland.
Free event, booking essential.
