Uncertain Futures was a key launch event of The Temple Bar Summer School, a programme of talks, events and workshops on the theme AN UNCERTAIN STATE

Leading artists, critics and academics explored the uncertainty and instability of contemporary Ireland, focusing on the effects of the global financial crisis; changing demographics; contested histories and emerging social and political landscapes. 

The talks were complemented by a specially curated group exhibition in the Gallery of Photography. 

The Temple Bar Photography Summer School is an initiative of: Gallery of Photography, Temple Bar Cultural Trust and Dublin City Council in partnership with Dublin Institute of Technology Photography Programme and The National Photographic Archive / The National Library of Ireland. Talks on 28 & 29 June were kindly hosted by Project Arts Centre.
