Titanic Exhibition feedback.




Some feedback from out Exhibition at the Titanic Quarter, Belfast. Viewed by thousands, we will be looking at all feedback to see how we can continue improving our exhibition skills. A big thank you to Michael Calan and Gerard Loughran who gave up so much of their time to organise this hugely successful event.

Matt 36, Northern Ireland - ''This is an amazing show of art works. It's unbelievable how they
were able to take simple metal and make it into
something so much more. We never really hear about 'Blacksmiths' anymore
unless you are into horses but after seeing this I can see just how talented
they really are".

Erica 40+, Newport - "what a great way to finish off such an amazing
exhibition. Looking at these pieces you can really imagine what the men
that worked in the ship yards of the 1900's had to do. They must have been
master craftsmen!! As these folk obviously are. I think that my favourite
is Endeavour as it captures the whole tragic story of Titanic using such a
tough, robust material but yet it keeps it soft and reflects the tragedy of
the story."

Keith 40+, Belfast - "I wish there was more information on how they managed
to turn hunks of metal into such amazing pieces. I would definitely be
interested in learning a little more about the craft of blacksmithing."

Katherine, Titanic Belfast - "It was wonderful to have the IBAB here in this
new iconic building exhibiting their works. It truly felt as if the whole
essence of the exhibition captured the underlying tone of what this new
structure is trying to achieve. The exhibition as a whole not only
showcased the talents of Irelands Blacksmiths, but it demonstrated that with
a little love, care and attention, even a simple piece of metal can become
so much more!"

Katherine Gardineer - Titanic Quarter Events Coordinator - I just wanted to let you both know about the publicity that we will be putting together for the exhibition. As I mentioned on Sunday I never doubted that the items you would provide me, would be fantastic but in all honesty the whole exhibition has blown me away. You are an amazing talented group of artists and I will do all I can to push the exhibition and your organisation to my fullest ability.
