Pictured: Nan Goldin in All the Beauty and The Bloodshed.
‘Summer at the Dock’ continues its outdoor programme of events taking place in Carrick-on-Shannon on Saturday, August 5, at 7pm.
It will be an outdoor screening of Laura Poitras’ Golden Lion-winning documentary ‘All the Beauty and the Bloodshed’.
Chronicling the life and work of artist Nan Goldin, who has been an acclaimed photographer of NYC’s LGBT and new-wave communities since the 1970’s, the film is an epic, emotional story.
Following Goldin’s own battles with addiction, she has devoted recent decades to activism – in particular efforts to address America’s opioid crisis. The film follows her years-long efforts to hold the Sackler family – owners of OxyContin manufacturer Purdue Pharma – to account.
Poitras documents how Goldin and her fellow activists took their fight to the prestigious museums and galleries that accepted many millions of dollars in donations from the Sacklers.
All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is a vital piece of documentary filmmaking: a portrait of an extraordinary artist and an urgent rallying cry for justice.
Tickets for this striking documentary are available for €8 with a €6 concessionary price for students, unwaged persons, and over 65’s.
Tickets are available now at www.thedock.ie or by calling 071 965 0828.
