Freude! Freude! by Amanda Coogan

The Douglas Hyde Gallery of Contemporary Art is excited to present a new work by renowned performance artist Amanda Coogan, Deaf artists Lianne Quigley and Alvean Jones with Dublin Theatre of the Deaf (DTD), Cork Deaf Community Choir and students from the Centre for Deaf Studies (CDS) at Trinity College Dublin. 'Freude! Freude!' is a live exhibition, an embodied performance and installation which translates Ludwig van Beethoven’s 'Ode to Joy' chorus into Irish Sign Language (ISL) and reinterprets the entire symphony through the lens of the Deaf experience.
