Tom Catena is an American physician who has been practising in Gidel in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan since 2008. The region has been an area of active conflict since the mid-1980s, and Catena is the only surgeon for the surrounding population of 750,000 people.

In 2017, he was awarded the second annual Aurora Prize for Awakening Humanity. He is chair of the Aurora Humanitarian Initiative. The annual Rev. Bernie Clark, C.S.C., Lecture was created by the Institute for Social Concerns in 2009 in order to highlight justice issues and themes related to the common good. The fall event honors Father Bernie who died young but influenced students with the life lesson of a “Theory of Enough.” Past speakers have included scholars and practitioners working to create a more just future for all.

Walter Frederick Osborne (Irish, 1859–1903), Tea in the Garden, 1903, oil on canvas, 54 3/8 x 68 ¼ inches (canvas). Lane Gift, 1912, Hugh Lane Gallery, HL.24. Collection & Image © Hugh Lane GalleryWhen Dublin’s innovative Municipal Gallery of Modern Art opened in 1908, three paintings by Walter Osborne hung on its walls. All were donated by the gallery’s founder, Hugh Lane, who was a great admirer of the artist. After Osborne’s death in 1903, Lane was keen to secure Osborne’s legacy though the acquisition of works by public collections. Come along on a journey through Dublin’s art scene at the turn of the century as Curator Logan Sisley considers the role of art in building Ireland’s national identity and the place of Osborne’s art in that effort.Presenter: Logan Sisley hails from New Zealand and studied art history at the University of Aukland. In 2007 he joined the staff of the Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin where he was recently appointed head of collections. He has published extensively on modern art in Ireland, including histories of the Hugh Lane Gallery and studies of John Lavery and Sarah Purser. In 2021 he was the co-curator for the exhibition Studio & State: The Laverys and the Anglo-Irish Treaty. Before the lecture in the atrium, we encourage you to explore Walter Osborne’s work on view in the Temporary Exhibition Galleries on Level 2. The exhibition will remain open until the lecture begins.
