This exhibition is the first in a new collaboration
between the Old Museum Arts Centre and the Context Gallery,
Derry. For the next six months from July to December the Old Museum
Arts Centre will act as host to a series of exhibitions created by
Context gallery.
Stadium
was originally exhibited in January 1998, at the time the exhibition
consisted of six large black and white photographs relating to the
1936 Olympic Stadium in Berlin designed by Werner March.
Stadium
is Victor Sloan’s first installation based exhibition and as a
result the context for the show in the Old Museum Arts Centre has
changed considerably to meet the different demands of the gallery
space.
Only two of the original six photographs remain from
the original exhibition at the Context Gallery. They have replaced
by a film projection. This will be the first time that Victor Sloan
has exhibited in this medium.
There is a publication accompanying this show with
essays by Mairin Murray and James Kerr. At the opening of Stadium on
Tuesday 30 June, 7-9pm, Victor Sloan will give a brief talk on his
work. This event is free and is open to everyone.
The Context Gallery would like to take this
opportunity to thank everyone at the Old Museum Arts Centre for this
wonderful opportunity, safe in the knowledge that this partnership
will generate a series of exciting and engaging exhibitions.
