Duan Exhibition by Siobhán McCormack-Ryan

The purpose of Siobhán McCormack-Ryan's  Duan exhibition is to make a cultural link during the New York St Patrick's Day Celebrations in 2010, to bring a real piece of Irish culture across the Atlantic Corridor to New York, to share her work with the Irish/American community on this special occasion.

The event will encompass a Fine Art exhibition by widely acclaimed visual artist, Siobhan McCormack-Ryan, focussing on landscapes and monastic sites of County Offaly. Each work of art will be accompanied by a literary interpretation in the Irish and English language, by Dr Daithi O'Hogain - Professor of Irish Folklore and Traditional Literature at University College Dublin.

The exhibition will be complimented with readings from books set in Offaly and New York by internationally renowned, Offaly-based author, Geraldine O'Neill.

The Duan exhibition in New York is dedicated to a Siobhán's close friend - Edel Duignan.
