Visitors to IMMA, Dublin, may have experienced Ilya and Emilia Kabakov’s installation The Children’s Hospital (which reverberated with the more institutional and medical history of IMMA’s site, the Royal Hospital). Also in the IMMA Collection is a beautiful set of Ilya’s drawings illustrating a series of his narratives.

TGI … Fenster Freitag! Two busy short weeks in a row for me, with Easter in between. The spring sunlight coming through the roof windows has helped along the way. Particularly as it illuminates the cracked surfaces of the centuries-old exposed wooden beams.

Storm-felled thick trunk Tuesday. This dead stump’s a platform for new life forms.

TGIF. There’s a yellow walled vestibule, where the window panes are tinted yellow, in the new Patricia Hurl survey exhibition at IMMA. There’s a bench facing the window. Go find it if you can and sit awhile.

My standing stone this Sunday: “One of Dublin's oldest cemeteries, Bully's Acre features a large 10th-century decorated granite cross shaft, possibly the remains of the boundary cross or 'termon' associated with St. Maigneann's Monastery founded in 606 CE”

The January light is amazing this year … or maybe I’m in that odd place where you notice something once and then start seeing it everywhere. The tree trunks were luminous with the low sun light for a while and then the rainy wind began.

An adjacent Standing Stone Sunday post today: two contemporary takes in the grounds of IMMA, Dublin: SENTINEL VIII, 1999, by Catherine Lee, inspired by her love of Scotland’s standing stones; and Untitled / Corrections D, 2008, by Iran do Espírito Santo, a firm favourite with visitors, especially younger ones.
