SUMMARY:The Atkinson: The Atkinson: The Art of Noise
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition: The Art of Noise\n\nDates: Saturday 8 September 20
 18 to Saturday 16 March 2019\nListening to music inspired by visual art\,
  The Art of Noise exhibition invites visitors to explore how music al
 ters the way they look at art and gives them the opportunity to enjoy a 
 multi-sensory experience in the gallery.\nMother and Child by renowned Li
 verpool sculptor and artist Arthur Dooley (1929-1994) has been specially c
 hosen by The Atkinson Development Trust to be a part of The Art of Noisee
 xhibition and is pictured with Ray Highton and Jo Chamberlain from The 
 Atkinson as they prepare for the exhibition.\nThis piece has not been on
  public display for over ten years and the Trust are delighted to give peo
 ple the opportunity to see it.  Arthur Dooley was a member of the Mersey
 side Worker Artists Association and helped establish the Liverpool Academy
  of Arts.  He was highly esteemed during his lifetime for his unique sty
 le and left an undoubted mark on the world of art and the social history o
 f Liverpool.\nThe Trust have chosen The Beatles’ track Lady Madonna to
  accompany the sculpture.  Released as a single in March 1968\, the song
 ’s main writer\, Paul McCartney explained:  “Lady Madonna started of
 f as the Virgin Mary\, then it was a working-class woman.”   The song s
 uggests there are different ways of interpreting the piece\, from the clas
 sic religious ideal of the Madonna\, to the reality of hard-working mother
 hood in the present day.\nArthur Dooley was a contemporary of the band\, 
 and Mother and Child was made just two years before Lady Madonna was r
 eleased.  Whilst his work was often religious in theme\, and can be seen
  in churches and cathedrals across Merseyside\, in 1974 he produced the f
 irst statue to commemorate The Beatles.  The Four Lads who Shook the Wor
 ld\, on Mathew Street\, depicts Liverpool as Mother Mary\, cradling her b
 abies\, The Beatles.\nThe Atkinson Development Trust is a charity which w
 orks to improve local people’s lives through the arts.  ww.theatkinson
