Catalyst uses gravity.....

All new Catalytst Arts Gallery presents;
Nevan Lahart’s ‘Genuine Irish Mug’



Since 2004 Catalyst Arts Gallery has been situated on the second floor of 5 College Court
in Belfast. In a bid to increase access and heighten our visibility and presence Catalyst
has undertaken the task of relocating.

Over the past month a crack team of volunteers alongside the Catalyst staff have been
transforming a new space which will now become the next home for the organisation.
Which, in a canny ploy to utilise gravity in the moving process, is situated two floors
below the previous location, essentially at the same address; 5 College Court but this
time on the ground floor of the building.





The new Catalyst gallery will open this Thursday 18th November with a solo exhibition
by Irish artist Nevan Lahart. For this exhibition ‘Genuine Irish Mug’ Lahart has
developed a new work in response to the city of Belfast and in a broader sense,
Northern Ireland itself.

The subject matter of Lahart’s work encompasses television, the media, social and
political perceptions and the history of art and life.

Interested in the role of the Museum and institution, Lahart often employs humour and
irony to negate cultural and artistic boundaries, using humble, cheap materials to create
expansive installations.

The preview of the exhibition will open with a wine reception on Thursday 18th
November 6pm – 9pm with the exhibition then running until the 11th December,
Tuesday – Saturday 11am – 5pm.
