Hi Cork Cultural Companions
Welcome to the Triskel Newsletter for July. After an exciting month filled with late-night events, it’s a little quieter on the musical front at Triskel for July. It’s also quieter because Nightlight is inspired by lullabies, sleep, dreams, peace, rest, succour and is especially for babies 0-12 months and their carers. It’s something that clearly appeals because all four performances on Thursday 4 July are now sold out!
Triskel Sample Project Space has been taken over by an exhibition by four artists, Caroline Boyfield, Laure Colomer, Rebecca Bradley and Ida Mitrani. Caroline and Laure travelled to Cork in May 2024 to undertake residency activity in Sirius Arts Centre and Uillinn West Cork Arts Centre, while Rebecca and Ida engaged in a residency in Brittany, France, in April 2024. On Friday 5 July, you have the opportunity to Meet the Artists between 11am and 2pm. Come along to say hello and learn more about their work and their residencies.
Triskel Cinema is still powering on with our usual eclectic mix of classics, Irish and international films, including Pat Collins’ That They May Face the Rising Sun, Yorgos Lanthimos’ Kinds of Kindness, and Rue de la Lune, which is part of our Phantoscope series.
Looking ahead to next month in Triskel Cinema, you can look forward to our Paul Verhoeven Season. This season of five films screened on Saturday evenings in August are dedicated to one of the most divisive, controversial and successful directors who worked in American cinema during the late 20th century. Tickets are on sale now.
See you soon
Gillian and the team at Triskel
