SUMMARY:Rathbone Studio: Review at the Rathbone
DESCRIPTION:In 2024 Liverpool Irish Festival recruited several artists to
  work with citizen groups across Merseyside to create art works responding
  to Liverpool Irish Famine Trail sites. The resulting work can be seen i
 n our app (accessible via liverpoolirishfaminetrail.com)\, but this exhib
 it provides an opportunity to see the original art works close-up\, with s
 ome works on show for the very first time.\n\nComprising films\, embroider
 y\, banners\, cyanotypes\, mixed media canvases and rediscovered stories\,
  the artworks help to connect people today with the legacy of The Great Hu
 nger\, considering its impact here on Merseyside.\n\nJust around the corne
 r from the Liverpool Irish Famine Trail’s plaque on Price Street\, the 
 gallery sits in Birkenhead where many of the Irish Famine poor arrived for
  refuge\, just south of where tragedy struck The Sea Nymph and The Ramb
 ler in the Mersey in 1846.\n\nThe Rathbone family – William IV (b.1757-
 d.1809)\, William VI (b.1819-d.1902) and Eleanor (b.1872-d.1946) especiall
 y – were key figures in the abolition of slavery\, nursing and Ireland
 ’s land league\, reflecting their Irish connections. Being in an eponymo
 usly named gallery\, therefore\, feels fitting.\n\nThe work was funded by
  The National Lottery Heritage Fund and is presented here in partnership
  with the Rathbone Ceramic Studio and Gallery. The Festival would like to
  thank Tadhg Devlin\, Lydia O’Hara and Nicola McGovern for their efforts
  – over and above the call of their original commissions – and the man
 y individuals that contributed to the art works on show\, especially Jean 
 Maskell and Richard Orritt who worked hard to get the exhibition on show.\
