The Model

Young Model: The Interview

Free / Young Model have interviewed six outstanding Irish artists whose work is represented in The Niland Collection. These exciting interviews with artists as diverse as Nick Miller, Barrie Cooke, Dorothy Cross, Sean McSweeney and Ronnie Hughes will be hosted here on the young model page.

So, whose painting is the best?

Young Model devised all the questions posed to the artists, and they also filmed and edited all the interviews that will be coming your way over the next few months.

Young Model have also interviewed a number of artists from the Model’s Exhibition programme over the last year including a number of the artists collectives from the DORM exhibition which you can watch here

The Interview project will also continue with Irish-born filmmaker Duncan Campbell who talks about his new work Make It New John, which tells the story of the DeLorean car. Young Model have also interviewed philosopher, historian and theorist Boris Groys who this summer was writer in residence at The Model and later this year a behind-the-scenes build up to the Kabokov exhibition in October.
