ABOUT DAN MAC CARTHY

AT ART AND THE ARTIST

Blackrock Park, Dublin

After years of searching, I finally discovered in 2023 that this striking metal sculpture is called "Cut Out People" and was created by Dan MacCarthy.

MacCarthy is a prominent figure in the Irish arts scene, having co-founded both the National Sculpture Factory and Triskel Arts Centre. He also serves as a director for the Sirius Arts Centre in Cobh. Beyond his administrative roles, MacCarthy has curated a wide range of exhibitions and projects, including "Sound Out" (with David Toop), "Bend It Like Beckett," "Sonic Vigil," and "Just Listen."
