CHINESE-IRISH FUSION MUSIC AND DANCE AT THE CHQ IN DUBLIN DOCKLANDS
This is the first time that I recorded video using the Sony A7RIII and using a 14mm lens certainly produced some strange effects.
DCNYF presented this year’s two-day Spring Festival Fair at The chq Building where you could feast your senses at both indoors and outdoors activities.
Along with Lion, Dragon and Unicorn performances there was also be an appearance of the famous Monkey King, or Sun Wukong, known as a character from Journey to the West, one of China’s classic novels.
DCNYF is a programme of the City Arts Office, part of the Culture, Community & Recreation Department of Dublin City Council (Chief Executive Owen P. Keegan, Deputy Chief Executive Brendan Kenny). The work of the Arts Office is made possible by the support of the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Nial Ring, and the members of Dublin City Council.
Established in 2008, the Dublin Chinese New Year Festival (DCNYF) year-on-year celebrates, promotes and deepens the understanding of the Sino/Irish relationship. The 2019 programme celebrates The Year of the Pig and marks the 12th year of this internationally recognised festival. With Chinese New Year’s Day falling on Tuesday 5th of February 2019, the festival plans to deliver a high profile cultural and celebratory programme to mark this significant date in the Chinese Calendar. Dublin will also continue to build on its twinning agreement with Beijing signed in 2011 and Dublin Airport Authority twinning with Beijing Airport established in 2013.
