Today was Day 0 for our documentary crew for the 40th Kilkenny Arts Festival and it kicked off with some on-camera chats with Bob and Roberta Smith.

Bob’s work is the core of the Visual Arts strand for this year’s festival and this work, Bonfire, can be seen in the reception area of County Hall and is open to all at the very least on weekdays.

Keep an eye on KilkennyArts.ie tomorrow and throughout the week for clips from Bob, discussings his work, and those reacting to it throughout the festival.
