An architectural installation being built in Collins Barracks this afternoon
Beyond Pebbledash in Clarke Square [Collins Barracks] is an architectural installation aiming to engage, challenge, provoke and inspire new ways of thinking about our city and urban architecture. The exhibition is on display from 27th August until 30th November 2014 at the National Museum of Ireland.
The project involves the erection of a ‘typical’ Dublin pebbledash house, at a scale of 1:1. It is composed of a reconstructed pebbledash facade on a steel skeletal frame detailing its walls, stairs, doors, rear fenestration, ceilings and roof.
Anyone?
“The memorial park in front of Collins Barracks, Dublin (now a part of the National Museum of Ireland) is known as the “Croppy Acre”, as the remains of rebels executed during the 1798 rebellion are said to lie there.” (Via Wikipedia)
Shane D writes:
“Pictures taken yesterday. A perfect example of Irish people’s indifference to litter, and a reflection of the Museum’s obvious lack of concern…”
Give them a clip around the ear. Never did Karl any harm.

This is now hanging in the kids’ area in the [National Museum of Ireland – Decorative Arts & History] museum in Collins Barracks. I despair.
