International art at the heart of Midsummer

Setting the tone for this is We Live By The River, at the Wandesford Quay Gallery.
Celebrating the 25th anniversary of the twinning of Cork with Cologne, it is the return leg of an art exhibition exchange between selected artists from the Backwater Artist Group and members of GEDOK Cologne, an art group committed to the equal recognition of women in the art world. Featuring work by Angelika Wittek, Beate Gördes and Hiltrud Gauf, and curated by Cork artist Tina Darb, We Live By The River presents the Rhine, as it flows through Cologne, as both a point of arrival and departure, a place of play and leisure and a locus of hope and opportunity.
