Esposito Quartet - The Beethoven String Quartets – Autumn Season⠀
Thu 29 Oct 2020 1pm & 8pm⠀
⠀
The Esposito Quartet comprises four of our most distinguished musicians with a combined wealth of experience as recital artists, orchestral leaders and teachers, who have been playing as a quartet since 2010.⠀
⠀
The RTÉ lyric fm quartets presented a greater range of drama and expression than had so far been known in this medium, and the two dramatic chords and ensuing silence that open No.2 in E minor set the tone for what follows. The A minor quartet Op.132 was written nineteen years later and is celebrated particularly for the extraordinary Heiliger Dankgesang (Song of Thanksgiving) which forms its slow movement.⠀
⠀
Introduced by RTÉ lyric fm's Evelyn Grant⠀

In a series of works informed by a residency in Sh

In a series of works informed by a residency in Shanghai, Doyle looks at China’s restrictive social structures and conventions with respect to sexual minorities. The artist focuses on individuals that they encountered during their residency –ranging from a queer activist to anonymous citizens –to ruminate on the tension between the conditions of existence of LGBTQIA+ people and normative sexual morale and behaviour. ⠀
⠀
One of the pieces depicts Ashley Jiang, a queer activist and the director of OutChina, ‘a visual document of China’s LGBTQIA+ community’. Jiang shares stories of queer individuals online to raise awareness regarding their issues and questions.⠀
⠀
Stephen Doyle Art's ''Numb'' Exhibition will be in Triskel Gallery Space until 15 Nov 2020. If you would like to come and see Stephen's work, please visit our website and book your time slot. Booking is free but essential.⠀

When Vitalina Varela steps off the plane in Lisbon

When Vitalina Varela steps off the plane in Lisbon, she is barefoot & wary. Arriving from the lush rural surroundings of Cape Verde, she hopes to reunite with her husband, who emigrated to the capital years before. She discovers that she is too late - his funeral took place three days before her arrival. Alone in the city, she must survive & contend with the ghosts of the past.⠀
⠀
From acclaimed Portugese auteur Pedro Costa, Vitalina Varela is a typically moving, dreamlike & richly humane chronicle of the lives of the dispossessed & marginalised.⠀
⠀
Starring non-professional actors (alongside Costa regular Ventura), this film takes the real-life story of Vitalina Varela (who plays a version of herself In the film) and creates a "minimalist masterpiece of light & dark" (Boston Herald).⠀
⠀
Tickets are to purchase available in our bio! Vitalina Varela screens from October 1st to October 4th.⠀
