Frank Little Exhibition at Alliance-Francaise Dublin
Frank Little Exhibition at Alliance-Francaise Dublin
Frank Little Exhibition at Alliance-Francaise Dublin - Now open and running until 21 November 2009.
Frank Little brings to his photography literary, artistic and philosophical influences. In Ulysses one of James Joyce characters, Stephen Dedalus, walks ‘into infinity along Sandymount strand’ and the world where Beckett places his protagonists is also the location for many of his photographs. RenĂ© Magritte spoke of his pictures as being solutions to certain problems of visual thinking. The images here try to posit the question of what perception actually is. We perceive and interact with the world through our senses and learned social behaviours. Modern Western thought was founded on Descartes’ dictum “I think therefore I am” but we are not just pure intellect. The physical world and how we interact with it are of intrinsic importance to what we are.
Admission free | Opening hours (until 25/09/09) | Monday – Thursday 8.30am–7.30pm Friday 8.30am–7.00pm | Opening hours from 28/09/09 | Monday – Friday 8.30am-7.30pm | Saturday 8.30-2pm
