Dublin Contemporary, Ireland's International Art |
DUBLIN (AFP) - An artist is welcoming tourists to his Dublin home - made from 1.4 billion euros (S$2.3 billion) of shredded bank notes - to stimulate debate about Ireland's ailing economy, he told AFP on Monday.
With the help of some donated timber and a door and a window given by a friend, the total cost to the struggling artist was just 35 euros, spent on wallpaper paste.
Mr Buckley, who finished the construction in January, said he hoped opening his home would boost sales of the 'cash-on-canvas' collages which hang on the walls as part of his exhibition, entitled Expressions of Recession.
