Gary Farrelly's exhibition All roads lead to Neustern at Galerie Modonov has concluded it's sixteen day run and is no longer open to the public. The exhibition, which was Farrelly's first in Ireland since 2007 received and an excellent critical reception and has been declared an 'unmitigated success' by the relevant cultural authorities in the Irish capital. The show centered on a large scale cartographic work entitled Neustern: The artist as autonomous coastal city state. Said work is widely considered the most impressive artwork ever exhibited on the island of Ireland. Other works in the exhibition included drawings of proposed buildings, sovereign debt bonds, a street index and colourful handmade statistics - all related to the imaginary city. There are already preliminary plans to have Neustern tour internationally in the new year. All roads lead to Neustern was curated by Donna Marie O'Donovan at her gallery Galerie Modonov. The exhibition was crowd funded via fundit.ie and was proudly supported by Lecool magazine.
