Experiences from the artist Jack B. Yeats’ memory are the subjects of his paintings in oil from the mid-1920s onwards. Through the prism of memory, banal scenes such train journeys and fair days are transformed into sensual rich coloured spectacles . In this podcast Dr Brendan Rooney and Professor Ruth Byrne discuss how Yeats captures the essence of memory in these works and how retrieving ideas from memory was vital in Yeats’ creative process. This podcast is presented in tandem with the National Gallery of Ireland exhibition, Jack B. Yeats: Painting & Memory (4 September 2021 - 6 February 2022). Happily supported by Key Capital.

Mondrian: Rooms for Manoeuvre

In this podcast, produced by the National Gallery of Ireland in association with our Mondrian exhibition, architect Emmett Scanlon explores the productive relationship between Mondrian and the studios he occupied and used when working. He also looks at how architecture has been influenced by his work and the work of his colleagues in the de Stijl movement, in conversation with Michael White, Mondrian scholar and academic. Emmett Scanlon is an architect. His work is concerned with the relationship between people and buildings and the role and purpose and impact of architecture on our everyday lives. He is the host and producer of the popular podcast on architecture and design, What Do Buildings Do All Day? He is Assistant Professor of Architecture at UCD and Program Director of the March program. This podcast was recorded in January 2021 as part of the National Gallery of Ireland's programme of events for the exhibition 'Mondrian'.
