About Made in Dublin from Gerhard Clausing
This photobook is a delightful symphony, a cinematic kaleidoscope, and all of that to present a dynamic portrait of a city. Eamonn Doyle has his roots in photography and painting, as well as in music creation and production, and this certainly has greatly enhanced this special work, which combines his three series i, ON, and End, all created in the last decade. Doyle’s street photography, if you even want to call it that, goes way beyond what we have seen before in this genre.
He absorbs the people of the street, found near his studio in Dublin, in a way that is comprehensive and caring, and he shows young and old, well-to-do and less so, subgroups of all kinds and backgrounds, mixed and subject to the rhythms of the city. The individual monochrome portraits are stunning, as you can see below. Colour is used sparingly, in the tradition of painters like Kees van Dongen, who sometimes used the colour red in otherwise monochrome paintings. The images Doyle shows us of the people of Dublin give us a sense of complexity and strife, but also of striving and possibilities.
