Gallery removes Cowen ‘noose’ art – Independent.ie

21 January, 2011

‘The Personal Guarantee’ went on display in the window of Dublin’s Apollo Gallery on Dawson Street last Thursday, but was later removed after a storm of protests.

The Apollo Gallery yesterday removed from their front window a controversial painting of Brian Cowen by Tom Byrne. Unfortunately, this all sounds terribly familiar. Here’s the paiting:

Welcome

Me in a hat

Hi there! Thanks for dropping by. I’m Eoin O’Dell, and this is my blog: Cearta.ie – the Irish for rights.


“Cearta” really is the Irish word for rights, so the title provides a good sense of the scope of this blog.

In general, I write here about private law, free speech, and cyber law; and, in particular, I write about Irish law and education policy.
