Organized by: Mitchell Art Gallery

Join Mitchell Art Gallery and quarto Collective for a conversation discussing our current exhibition Amanda Dunsmore: AGREEMENT in the context of colonial legacies.

In 2023, the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, Amanda Dunsmore created a unique iteration of AGREEMENT, which journeyed into communities across Northern Ireland. Diverse communities were invited to explore the meaning of the Good Friday Agreement, and agreement more broadly, and to host the artwork in a location of their choice, for a period of just 24 hours. Bryonie and Gemma of quarto, who designed and facilitated the community engagement process, will explore the context for and outcomes of that process, and the role that art can play in divided societies.
