Show Notes
In this episode, we talk to Maria Svejdar - Head of Marketing, Communications and CX at GS1 Ireland, which is the only organisation authorised by GS1 Global to allocate and administer GS1 barcode numbers in Ireland.
We as artists are eager to ask questions about the importance of barcodes in the art world. Do we need them? Are our creative pieces products? We want to sell them but are we exempt from retail? Why should one do so? - it's more professional - retail outlets will trust you - buyers will trust you.
What if I'm super organised and want to barcode my paintings - can I do so? If I get barcodes to use in retail - can I use the same one on online shops?

This is episode two of a two-part interview with visual artist Maria Jordan OReilly. Part one can be found here.
Maria Jordan OReilly is a late-emerging artist in her sixties. Her work is quite eclectic coming from a place of emotion and expresses that through using colour and texture, a mixture of acrylic pouring, mixed media, markers and watercolour. The subject matter of her pieces very from quite dark ideology to very light-hearted and almost whimsical depictions.

In this episode we talk to the incredible artist Francis Tansey who is a professional artist, an international painter best known for his work in geometric, hardedge colour field with op art elements. Tansey studied in the NCAD and is interested in the development of colour in an abstract sense. His influences include Bauhaus, Kandinsky & the colour theory master Johannes Itten. Tansey’s research focuses on how colour is perceived as an international language. In 1985 he became the first artist in residence at the Butler Gallery in Co. Kilkenny, where his brightly coloured geometric acrylic paintings caused great interest.
