June 16, 2020 Arts House Podcast: Elmarie Mawe interviews multi talented performer JD Kelleher
We are always so pleased to highlight and showcase Cork singers, songwriters and performers, whether they’re working here or abroad. And whether they’re new to the scene or working for years in the arts. JD Kelleher is one of those artists who has done and is doing it all. Somewhat of an all-rounder and chameleon. he can act, he can sing, he can present, he can write, he can change his image, he can change his voice…..you get the idea. And yet, because he is living in London now where he acts and sings and runs an actors agency with something like 200 performers on his books, we can sometimes lose sight of Cork talent abroad. During lockdown he’s been producing and releasing new music from London and it was a chance to chat and listen to music. And we went right back to the beginning, when he first left Millstreet to do arts in UCC.

June 15, 2020 WORK OF THE WEEK NO 9 "Corpus Christi Procession" Aloysius O Kelly
Conor Tallon spoke to Assistant Curator Michael Waldron of the Crawford Art Gallery about Corpus Christi Procession (c.1908) by Aloysius O’Kelly

We’re marking the Feast of Corpus Christi (11 June) with this WORK OF THE WEEK!
As we patiently await the return of large public gatherings, Corpus Christi Procession (c.1908) by Aloysius O’Kelly captures a beautiful impression of one that is long since passed.
The painting presents three young figures in profile as they participate in a religious procession. Having trained under Jean-Léon Gérôme and Léon Bonnat at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, the Dublin-born artist here adopts an Impressionist style. Describing the particular effects of light and colour, summer warmth is communicated through earthy tones, which are set in contrast by the cool whites and blue shadows of the figures’ vestments.
The setting for the painting is likely north-western France, thus making this a depiction of a Breton celebration of La Fête-Dieu (Corpus Christi). Having visited Brittany in 1876, and subsequently moving to the fishing port of Concarneau, Aloysius O’Kelly (1853-1936) became one of the first Irish artists to live and work in the region. Roderic O’Conor (1860-1940) and William John Leech (1881-1968) would follow.
Although he emigrated to New York in 1895, O’Kelly would return to France on numerous occasions, completing this work and the similarly themed Ave Maria - procession religieuse en Bretagne (1909) around the same time.

June 15, 2020 Arts House Podcast: The National Arts Recovery Plan : Gerry Kelly explains it's vital importance
Now more than ever the Arts in Ireland needs your support ... from the ground up and also from the top down... Regular guest on the Arts House Gerry Kelly explains the vital importance of the National Arts Recovery Plan proposed by the National Campaign for the Arts :

"If we allow the arts to be left behind as we move to rebuild Ireland, attempts to re-stimulate the arts and culture sector down the line will be unachievable, there will be far too little left for any meaningful revival of the ecosystem that salves, sustains and sells our country."

Máirtín was a guest on the show back in March at the outset of the Pandemic, with advice for Irish performers on doing gigs online when that wouldn't have been so common over here.
