Transmission will be participating in Influx, Limerick, 26th - 29th May May 20th 2011

Transmission will present 'The Hard Way To Enlightenment', a recent film by German artist Stephan Dillemuth, commissioned by Transmission and Manifesta 8, and made over a five-week residency period in September 2010. Transmission is also pleased to present a new performance by Shelly Nadashi, created in conjunction with her recent solo exhibition 'Text Me Faster Dance Company'. Transforming personal situations into absurd scenarios in a surreal and entertaining manner, Nadashi’s work considers themes of identity, behaviour and control in both a personal and wider social context.



From May 26 - 29 in_flux temporarily takes over the Thomas Street Centre, an 11,000 m2 landmark building in Limerick city centre. The ten galleries will present their pop-up exhibitions over five extensive floors, while the top floor will host an e v+ a bookshop and in_flux Salon, a place for discussion, screenings and talks.

in_flux brings to Limerick a exciting sample of diverse contemporary art practices from some of the most interesting artist-led spaces in Ireland and Europe. This project initiates a collaboration between grass-roots art spaces of similar orientations, with the intention of creating new opportunities for artists locally, nationally and internationally, while promoting the strength of visual culture in Limerick.
