- Summary:
- This collection of interviews with twelve individuals significant in the world of Irish art is an oral history of the visual arts in Ireland over the past forty years. The interviewees range from Michael D. Higgins, the first minister for arts and culture in Ireland, and Declan McGonagle, former Director of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, to Brian Fallon, art critic with The Irish Times, and Dorothy Walker, the noted writer and critic. Artists are also interviewed--Vivienne Roche and Paul O'Reilly--but as commentators on the art scene rather than artists.
