Songs to the Siren, The Model, Sligo, January 24 – April 12:

Curated by artists Paul Hallahan and Lee Welch, this group exhibition takes its title from one of the late Tim Buckley’s most iconic songs, and its inspiration from the Irish writer Brian O’Nolan, whose output under the pseudonyms Flann O’Brien and Myles na gCopaleen was, Hallahan and Welch observe, marked by a quiet melancholy.
