Irish Murals Mark The Troubles in Bogside Derry/Londonderry - The Bogside Murals - History Tour

A walking tour of the Derry/Londonderry murals. Many found in the Bogside part of Derry - political murals marking many key events in the city's history including Bloody Sunday. A haunting reminder to the times not that long ago that the people of Northern Ireland suffered due to the Troubles. It is well worthwhile for any tourist to take a tour in these areas with a local and hear first hand the events that consumed everyday life in Northern Ireland. Bogside is a neighborhood outside the city of walls of Derry in county Londonderry and this is where the different large-garble wall murals drawn by Bogside Artists, Free Derry Corner, and the Gasyard Feile (which is an annual music and arts festival held in a former gasyard). These different murals are considered a famous touristic attraction and that was the reason why we managed to visit this place and wander the streets looking for those art pieces. Most of these different murals drawn on the walls of the streets are related to the period of The Troubles since this neighborhood has been the focal point of almost all the events of The Troubles. The Troubles was an ethno-nationalist conflict in Northern Ireland during the late 20th century which was also known as the Northern Ireland Conflict. This conflict was mainly political and nationalistic but sometimes it was fueled by some historical events along the way With the effort exerted by Bogside Artists, there are now 12 large wall murals drawn on the street walls of this small neighborhood and which the last one of them was completed in 2008. With all these different drawings found on the walls, this place has been referred to as "The People's Gallery" and which include The Petrol Bomber, Bernadette, Bloody Sunday, Bloody Sunday Commemoration, Death of Innocence, Hunger Strike, Operation Motorman, The Saturday Matinee, Civil Rights, Peace Mural, The Runner, and A Tribute to John Hume. Every single one of these different murals is drawn for a reason and to tell a specific story about the history of Bogside when it comes to The Troubles time. There are different drawings from these which might be related to the same incidence or event but which might be telling a different story; there was this one for example related to the Bloody Sunday incident of those 14 people killed during a civil rights demonstration, and there is also another one related to the same day but which is about the face or portraits of those different 14 people along with drawing a leaf around them; 14 leaves, each one to resemble one of those victims. Walking through streets that carry these different pieces and murals of art will definitely let one wonder about those who have been behind such creativity and ideas. Bogside Artists is a trio of mural painters from Derry, Londonderry and who are Tom Kelly, William Kelly, and Kevin Hasson; they are those three painters who transformed the walls of Bogside to this beautiful scenery which we are exposed to and not just that, but they tend to deliver something of meaning, something related to the history of Derry. Those murals drawn in the streets of Bogside neighborhood are the most famous work for Bogside Artists, and which is all about the sectarian violence and the civil rights protests during the time of The Troubles in Northern Ireland - and we have to say that we were more than excited while watching all these drawings and experiencing the art that these three artists managed to deliver. If you already know about the history of the place and know what used to happen during the time of The Troubles then you could just head to Bogside and wander the streets there in Derry to experience those murals and know the stories they tend to deliver, but if you don't know much about this period of time then there are two different things to do: you will either have to read about this history in order to understand every single mural, or else walk the place with a guide or someone who knows about these things well enough. The idea of street murals is always fascinating, you walk by one of them and you feel as if you have seen the most beautiful thing in the whole world. There are other murals in Northern Ireland which are also becoming famous such as the Peace Wall in Belfast (   • PEACE WALL IN BELFAST - Beautiful Wal...  ), the murals and artwork in the Cathedral Quarter in Belfast (   • Cathedral Quarter Belfast - Murals an...  ), the Tall Ships mural in Belfast (   • Tall Ships Mural Belfast - Rotterdam ...  ), and also The Son of Protagoras Mural which is found in Belfast as well (   • The Son of Protagoras Mural - Belfast...  ). Walking by any of these different murals - or graffiti as they are referred to more - will also leave you stunned by the art you are seeing displayed on the street walls and that is exactly the same with Bogside in Derry.
