I love that this book is still finding readers. It declares its unorthodox, experimental intentions from the start and it’s really not what you think it might be. @rha-arts.bsky.social #FromTenTillDusk

Looking forward to talking about my new book, From Ten till Dusk, at the RHA as part of Dublin Book Festival at 1pm today. So many stories of politics and passion, people and ideas, falling out and failings in, and a lot more… in the academy’s remarkable 200 year history. #FromTenTillDusk

There is also a large gatefold with a timeline of excerpts from all reviews over 200 years measured by temperature from hot to cold!” More images👇 #FromTenTillDusk

Already started the book tour 😄 This is one of fewer than ten copies in Cork city right now, but fret not, it’ll be in bookshops soon. Thank you Cork Printmakers for having me ⭐️ Great chats about this and Negative Space, and the past/future of art criticism. #FromTenTillDusk

I can’t concentrate properly waiting to get my hands on a physical copy of my new book. And I’m not even sure if I’m going to see it until the actual launch next week. Books don’t feel real until you are holding them in your hand. #FromTenTillDusk

Invite graphic saying I’ll be in conversation with Dr Abigail O’Brien in the RHA at 1pm on 9 Nov as part of Dublin Book Festival. And two lovely photographic portraits of us. Mine is by Clare Keogh. I’m not sure who took the photo of Abigail.

Dubliners, Dublin visitors, and Dublin Book Festival goers. Come along to see me and RHA President Dr Abigail O’Brien in conversation about #FromTenTillDusk at Dublin Book Festival on 9 Nov in the RHA Gallery. Tickets (free) here - dublinbookfestival.com/event/from-t...
