#MOCA MUSEUM PHOTOGRAPHY GALLERY SERIES#

The series is named after Augustus Pugin, the architect driven mad by his design of the Houses of Commons, whose patterns are still replicated in furnishings today. On Pugin closely surveys the ephemera and dirt of the carpets of the Houses of Parliament, inviting a closer, more detailed scrutiny of a nuanced mess.

Five lens-based artists and five audio composers вЂ“ Michael Boran & Keith Mannion, Ciaran Dunbar & Steve McCollum, Mark Duffy & Orri McBrearty, Nina Maalej & Jeremy Fitz Howard, and Ruth Gonsalves Moore & Гљna Keane - explored the world of NFTs, reimagined their work, and collaboratively developed new NFT artworks that are being exhibited both in the Metaverse at the Museum of Crypto Art and the вЂrealвЂ™ at Regional Cultural Centre, Letterkenny and Gallery of Photography Ireland. The Galleries With Walls programme asked the artists to decide. Are NFTs the next frontier for artists, or is this a case of the emperorвЂ™s new clothes? Seemingly from nowhere, NFTs have captured the attention, imagination and discourse of the entire internet as millions scramble to understand the impact this nascent technology is having on art, its creation, curation, and ultimately collection. Galleries With Walls 2021, talk of NFTs is everywhere вЂ“ evening news segments, rabid Twitter threads, disparaging long-read articles and of course, memes.
