<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

\u201cThe 10 artists announced today as Markievicz Award recipients join the 20 artists already in receipt of the Award since it began in 2019.\u00a0 The Award honours Constance de Markievicz \u2013 herself an artist \u2013 and provides tangible support for artists from all backgrounds and genres to produce new work that reflects on the role of women in the period covered by the centenary commemorations and beyond.\u00a0 Enhanced last year, 2022 is the fourth year of the Award ably administered by our partner, the Arts Council.\u00a0 I am committed to supporting the Award this year and next as we work to renew, restore and support the working environment for artists in the wake of the public health emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.\u201d<\/u><\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

Minister Martin added:<\/u><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/u>\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n

\u201cI am particularly pleased to meet the artists in person for the announcement of the Award this year.\u00a0 Each recognises the importance of acknowledging, understanding and highlighting the vital role played by women individually and collectively in our history.\u00a0 I look forward to following the progress of the artists and the new work produced as an outcome of these awards – both elements will contribute to our collective discourse on the vital role of women in the campaign for independence and the 100 years since the Foundation of the State.\u00a0 Creative expression is a vital outlet and resource for our society, in articulating contentious history and informing our present thinking and future aspirations.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
