Ireland
has
been the center of MacWeeney's personal photographic projects. The
photo
essays he created there include: “Portraits of the Catholic Clergy”
(1962-63), images reflecting the poetry of W.B. Yeats (1965-66), “The
Conflict in Northern Ireland” (1971) and “Stone Walls”
(1984-1986). The last project led him to another aspect of Irish life
and the beginning of a deep involvement with Irish “Travellers”. From 1965 to 1971, he photographed “Travellers” extensively in Dublin and the West of Ireland. Portfolios of the work were published in among others Creative Camera (1967), Aperture (1980), Ais Eiri (1981) and Photographers International (1996). |
