Celebrating 25 years of Film Ireland Magazine Exhibition
Celebrating 25 years of Film Ireland magazine, an exhibition of articles looking back over 25 years of Ireland’s only cultural magazine dedicated to film has now closed. However we will continue to put all exhibition pieces online this summer.
The first issue of Film Ireland – then known as Filmbase News – was published in May 1987. With the publication of the current issue, no. 142, for autumn 2012, we looked back over 25 years of the magazine by exhibiting a selection of articles in full in the gallery space in Filmbase.
The articles ranged from Nell McCafferty writing on pornography in issue Feb/Mar1990, to Cillian Murphy telling us ‘I mean it’s Batman for fuck’s sake – it’s not a difficult decision!’ in Mar/Apr 2004.
The 10 pieces include issue 1 of Filmbase news of May/June 1987 printed in full.
The exhibition ran from Tuesday 31st July until Sunday 19th August.
