National Irish Bank
Formerly known as National Irish Bank
- The former National Irish Bank building is now occupied by an English language school and a fast-food restaurant.
- Patrick Street gets its name from Patrick Arthur, a member of the wealthy Limerick merchant family.
- This site was one of 18 venues for the 27th edition of EVA in 2003, curated by Virginia Pérez-Ratton (b. 1950, Costa Rica) and titled on the border of each other.
- Here, João Pedro Vale (b. 1976, Portugal) presented a single-channel video titled Do you want to be part of a world of sleeping people? (2002).
- The video featured a performance by the artist, dressed as a sheep, jumping continuously across the central reservation barrier on a busy street in Cork city. The filming, lasting from dawn to dusk, pursued the artist’s ongoing exploration of sleep and dreams.
