The Irish Costume Archive Project has teamed up with Russborough House in Blessington, Co. Wicklow to launch an exciting new exhibition for autumn 2022.
Entitled “The Art of Costume”, the exhibition explores the relationship between actors and costumes, and the growth of the Irish film industry. Launching on Thursday, 11th August and running until Sunday, 16th October, the exhibition will display costumes from the ICAP collection that have been collected and preserved from some of the most prestigious film productions shot in Ireland. “The Art of Costume” exhibition features 17 costumes from 12 well known film and television productions, all revealed up close highlighting their exquisite attention to detail.
The exhibition displays costumes from the four-time Emmy award-winning ‘Normal People’, as well as the famous Afghan coat worn by Daniel Day Lewis in the film ‘In The Name of the Father’, the military uniform worn by Liam Neeson in ‘Michael Collins’ and Brendan Gleeson’s flamboyant silk dressing gown in ‘The Guard’. The exhibition also includes costumes from the Oscar winning ‘The Favourite’, as well as ‘The Crying Game’, ‘Little Women’, ‘Ripper Street’ and ‘Love and Friendship’, which was filmed in part at Russborough House.
ICAP由服装设计师Eimer Ni Mhaoldomhnaigh和服装从业者Veerle Dehaene于2017年创立。Eimer和Veerle都有丰富的行业知识和经验。在制作方面，Eimer曾与导演Neil Jordan、Jim Sheridan和Ken Loach合作，向他们提供她在服装设计方面的专业知识。Veerle利用她作为服装从业者的知识，在都柏林的The Costume Mill管理Joan Bergin的服装收藏。他们一起创建了ICAP，因为他们都很关心这些服装的后世，他们认为这些服装是爱尔兰电影遗产的一个组成部分。该档案馆现在拥有300多件服装，它们被永久地保存在威克洛郡的阿德摩尔工作室。
谈到在Russborough House举办的展览，ICAP的创始人Veerle说，服装在演员的角色塑造中起着至关重要的作用，很多时候他们只有穿上服装才能完全进入角色。这是演员、导演和服装设计师之间的合作，它涉及大量的历史和社会研究，以确定真实性和准确性。
该展览也是经营Russborough House的Alfred Beit基金会教育计划的一个重要部分，特别是针对小学毕业后和过渡年级的学生，因为它将为有兴趣以服装设计为职业的学生举办一个专门的研讨会。据Russborough的收藏和保护主管Pauline Swords说，服装设计讲习班的目的是 "帮助学生理解角色发展和服装之间的关系"。研讨会将涉及整个设计过程，服装与剧本的关系，将电影故事形象化所需的服装情节，以及参观博物馆、档案馆和图书馆如何帮助获得对历史上某个时期的真实看法。拉斯伯勒宫为展览提供了一个宏伟的背景，它是一座拥护精致的乔治亚式完美的历史建筑。
ICAP was founded in 2017 by costume designer Eimer Ni Mhaoldomhnaigh and costume practitioner Veerle Dehaene. Eimer and Veerle both have extensive industry knowledge and experience. On the production side, Eimer has worked with directors Neil Jordan, Jim Sheridan and Ken Loach, providing her expertise in costume design to them. Veerle utilised her knowledge as a costume practitioner to manage Joan Bergin’s costume collection at The Costume Mill in Dublin. Together they founded ICAP because they were both concerned about the afterlife of such costumes, that they believe, are an integral part of Ireland’s film heritage. The archive is now home to over three hundred costumes that are permanently stored and preserved at Ardmore Studios in Co. Wicklow.
Speaking about the launch of the exhibition at Russborough House, ICAP founder Veerle said, Costume plays a vital part in the actor’s characterisation, and very often they do not fully get into character until they get into their costume. It is a collaboration between the actor, director, and costume designer, and it involves a huge amount of historic and social research to establish authenticity and accuracy.
The exhibition is also an important part of The Alfred Beit Foundation’s, who operates Russborough House, educational programme, particularly for post primary and transition year students, as it will feature a specialised workshop for students interested in pursuing costume design as a career.
According to Pauline Swords, Head of Collections and Conservation at Russborough, the purpose of the costume design workshops is “to help students appreciate the relationship between character development and costume”. The workshops will touch on the whole design process, how the costume is related to the script, the costume plot needed to visualise the film story, and how visits to museums, archives, and libraries help to get a realistic vision of a period in history. Russborough House provides a magnificent backdrop for the exhibition, being a historic building that champions exquisite Georgian perfection.
