We're looking for strong hi-res images from the Mayo struggle, to add to our 'Shell's Wild Lie' exhibition (http://www.artnotoil.org.uk/gallery/v/Shell/). Faces of those involved are good, but so are land/seascapes from the struggle etc.

Please write to info@artnotoil.org.uk if you might be able to help.

Thanks,

However the 22 people involved including five Palestinian doctors, intend to return to Gaza and invite others to join them
Here is the full text of a statement by Mairead Maguire concerning the venture. ... read full story / add a comment
