Political Artist call-out

Doing prelimanary research for an Ireland political exhibtion at the Station Art Museum in Houston ,Tx.

This is call out to all political artists and friends of artists in the Ireland area. My name is Gabriel Delgado and I am one of the curators at the Station Museum in Houston, Tx and I am in the preliminary research stages of putting together a political Irish exhibition for our space in later 2004. We just opened our latest International art exhibition called “Made in Palestine”, this is a contemporary all Palestinian art show based on the Free Palestine movement with 25 international artists. Our exhibition was a huge success with over 1,500 people attending the opening. This exhibition is the only all Palestinian exhibition in the United States. We were able to spend a month in the Middle East visiting studios and see museums and galleries in Syria, Jordan, and Palestine.
I am now interested in organizing a political Irish exhibition revolving around the IRA and against the occupation of the British. For those of you who might be interested feel free to contact me at locodel99@yahoo.com
