Dublin by Dusk – North Circular: A Musical Trip Through Inner-City Dublin

Thur 28 May, 6 - 8pm
IMMA Front Lawn

As part of our Dublin by Dusk programme, IMMA is excited to present the screening of the multi award winning documentary North Circular: A Musical Trip Through Inner-City Dublin directed by Luke McManus. The screening will be preceded by a live overture performed by acclaimed cellist Kevin Murphy (Slow Moving Clouds, Rattling Ark) featuring themes from his soundtrack for the film. North Circular will be screened on Living Canvas at IMMA, Europe’s largest digital outdoor art screen presented at IMMA by IPUT Real Estate.

North Circular is a documentary musical shot in black‑and‑white that explores the history, music, and streetscapes of this iconic route, touching on themes from colonialism and mental health to women’s liberation.

Alongside the screening the exhibition Fisherwoman, Fisherwoman will open late until 8pm. This exhibition brings together two distinct art practices – of painter Camille Souter (1929–2023) and contemporary artist Alberta Whittle (b. 1980). Spanning a period of 70 years across two generations, the works in this thematic exhibition range from painting, collage and watercolours, to immersive film, sculptural installation and live performance.

IMMA’s Fruition café van will be open in the courtyard for refreshments and treats!
