Meet the Artist: Niamh McCann

A word from the artist herself, on the exhibition 'La Perruque' in our Tall Gallery. https://themaclive.com/shows/niamh-mc... This project marks the first solo presentation of work in Northern Ireland by Dublin-based artist Niamh McCann. McCann works by drawing together many different reference points and distilling them into a kind of sculptural poetry. Her most recent works have found creative play in the study of the life and times of a lesser-established Bauhaus architect Hans Poelzig (1869-1936). This exhibition looks in particular at the architect’s design and development of Frankfurt’s IG Farben building, his involvement in the production of the iconic film Der Golem, and further cinematic links to his life and work. The artist unites varied influences and historical touchstones by exploring the idealism they represented in their original incarnations and the ways in which, over time, they have become overlaid with different narratives, stories and meanings. These works attest to McCann’s interest in the interweaving of fact and fiction, and the overlapping layers of narrative, history and fable that are contained within the cultural and physical structures that we construct around us.
