Dubs, Tony Murray

'Dubs' collects Tony Murray's evocative photographs of Dubliners and their city captured as the 1970s gave way to the 1980s. The work is a powerful portrayal of the citizens of Dublin at work and at play-protesting and parading; hawking and trading; busking and begging; courting and sunbathing-against a backdrop of crisis, neglect and decay. An introduction by historian Daithí Ó Corráin alongside an essay by Peter Sheridan and an interview with the photographer place these important images in context.
