Victor Sloan
History, Locality, Allegiance, a solo exhibition by the internationally renowned Victor Sloan, brings together a comprehensive selection of past works, with a particular focus on his lesser-known video works. This exhibition is a unique opportunity to re-examine Victor’s sustained investigation into his own personal history, aspects of protestant communities’ cultural traditions and a range of images now synonymous with Northern Ireland through the period of the ‘troubles’.

Colin Darke & David Mabb
550 paintings by Colin Darke and David Mabb combine to construct Commodity Form, an overlapping selection of works. While each series has the potential to be shown singly, the juxtaposition of the two opens a debate between the political concerns of the artists.

Solo exhibition by Una Walker
While firmly grounded in Northern Ireland's past, Reports from an agent in the field, a major new solo exhibition by Una Walker, disrupts notions of nostalgia. A sound installation, the exhibition provides information in a fragmentary form that denies an easy appropriation of the past.
OPENING TIMES: Tuesday-Friday 11am-5pm. Saturday 1pm-4pm. Admission Free.
The Golden Thread Gallery, Switch Room, 84-94 Great Patrick Street, Belfast, BT1 2LU.
