Dealbh Fraoich: A Portrait of Heather
A鈥� comharrachadh beatha agus obair ealain Fhraoich Nic an De貌ir. A celebration of artist Heather Dewar鈥檚 life and work.
Tro shia shreathan de Dhealbhan Fraoich tha Fraoch Nic an De貌ir air luaidh a dh猫anamh, na cuid dealbhan, air m貌ran Gh脿idheil fada is farsaing, sean is 貌g. Ach a-nise an t-脿m ann luaidh a dh猫anamh oirre fh猫in.
Sa phr貌gram s貌nraichte a tha uair a th矛de a dh鈥檉haid, chithear Rupachitta NicDhonnchaidh, Iseabail Mhoireach agus Calum Aonghas MacAoidh an cuideachd Fhraoich. Bi iad a鈥� c貌mhradh rithe mu a beatha - an d脿 chuid pearsanta 鈥檚 na h-obair - le gach neach-ealain a鈥� cleachdadh am modh fh猫in son a tarraing.
Chan fhaic Fraoch an obair chriochnaichte gus an t猫id an taisbeanadh ann an Glaschu. C貌mhla ris na tr矛 dealbhan 霉ra aig a鈥� chuirm sh貌nraichte seo, bi cruinneachadh de chuid de na tha Fraoch fh猫in air a pheantadh thairis an t-sreath Dealbhan Fhraoich. Cruinnichidh cuideachd cuid de na G脿idheil a shuidh dhi thairis nam bliadhnaichean gus an dealbh fh猫in fhaicinn crochte san 脿ite s貌nraichte seo.
Over six series of Dealbhan Fraoich, Heather Dewar has celebrated and immortalised on canvas Gaels young and old from across the country. Now it鈥檚 Heather鈥檚 turn.
In this hour long special, artists Rupachitta Robertson, Ishbel Murray and Calum Angus Mackay, working in different mediums, will have Heather sit for them while they talk to her about her life and work.
Heather doesn鈥檛 get to see the finished artworks until they are revealed at a special exhibition in Glasgow. As well as showcasing these new pieces, a selection of Heather鈥檚 own portraits from the Dealbhan Fraoich series are displayed, and some of the Gaels who sat for them over the years join Heather at the exhibition to see their portrait on the gallery walls.
In Gaelic with English subtitles.
