A quarter turn to face the light [The Edge of Things #1]

CCA is delighted to present A quarter turn to face the light by artist David Beattie. The exhibition is the first of CCA’s Spring programme of one-day exhibitions (The Edge of Things) taking place through February and March 2017.

A quarter turn to face the light is a new work that explores the fluid tangibility of an edge. In an attempt to grasp a moment in time, Beattie will present a temporary, sculptural event at CCA that will follow the solar alignment during gallery hours on the 3rd February. The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication featuring a text by writer and curator Pádraic E Moore.

David Beattie is an artist who lives and works in Dublin. Assembled from a variety of everyday materials, Beattie’s work attempts to provide a framework for assessing our daily surroundings, exploring the intermediary moments where physics, philosophy, technology and nature collide.

The Edge of Things is a programme of one-day exhibitions taking place at CCA through February and March 2017, selected through an Open Call process by CCA and artist Sean Lynch.
