Gallery Talk: Peter Fend in conversation with Sean Lynch

Peter Fend and Ocean Earth have over five decades of proposed speculative and visionary ecological projects that rethink the relationships between art, power and the planet. A global figure in contemporary art, Fend sees its potential for radical change with the use of biomass, seaweed, wind and wave power, and his ideas have often led him into friction with the representatives of government agencies, Big Oil and energy suppression. In conversation with artist Sean Lynch, he outlines what role Ireland has to play in these dialogues.

The talks are free and open to everyone, but advance booking is necessary.
