Tate Liverpool| Current Exhibitions | Afro Modern: Journeys through the Black Atlantic.
The new micro-site for the Afro Modern exhibition at Tate Liverpool is now running.
We had a look round yesterday and really enjoyed the show which opens today. Private View tonight for members and there are some launch events on Saturday afternoon.

Just been reading the first of Mercy’s e-zines for this year. Its only 6 pages but a good read, the poetry is excellent as you would expect from Nathan Jones & Co. and Tom Common’s article about Sheffield architecture is very interesting.
12 Angry Zines
This year, Mercy are producing twelve monthly E-Zines, each one based on a character from Sidney Lumet’s seminal 1957 movie, 12 Angry Men.
Why? Well, we love the way the sentiment of this film chimes with our strapline If We Don’t Care, Who Will? and the Mercy touchstones of irreverence, integrity and provocation.
Since the day dot, Mercy events, zine and design production has thrived on the will to challenge the accepted norm, the energy to make things happen, and the generosity to see it through to the hair-raising end. In this sense, Davis from 12 Angry Men is Mercy’s dad.

A video with sculptor, Emma Rodgers, talking about her process of creating her work. It was filmed in her studio for the Rise of Women Artists exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery.
Actually its been a year since my last update so some are not so recent, must update more frequently.
Several artist’s pages have been updated too.
If you are an artist based in the Merseyside area and would like a (FREE) page in the directory then please contact us for details.
People may move across the Atlantic but ArtInLiverpool will still find them.
Michael Connor was a curator at FACT in its early days, then moved to London and is now back in his hometown New York.
Claire Hamilton has taken a year out from presenting Drive Time on Radio Merseyside to be in New York with her husband.
Now Mike and Claire have just started this art podcast via the Marian Spore gallery in Brooklyn. They’re a couple of years behind our artinliverpool podcasting which I know many of you listen to each week but it sounds good. I know nothing about the NY scene though, I’ve never even been there – maybe someday.
Marian Spore is pleased to announce the launch of Radiovisual, a new podcast about contemporary art in New York hosted by Michael Connor with broadcaster Claire Hamilton. It’s fast, it’s funny, it has Thurston Moore in it. In this pilot episode, we discuss Jeffrey Deitch’s appointment to MOCA, we lament the closure of Monkeytown, and we review shows by Omer Fast, Patti Smith / Steven Sebring, and Bruce High Quality Foundation.
We’ll be on iTunes soon, but for now you can download the episode by visiting http://marianspore.com/2010/01/episode-1/

We have just been to the re-launch event for the Open Culture website. Artinliverpool got some good coverage there as well – Phil Redmond called us Culture Stalkers – fair enough.
The original website has been redesigned in partnership with FACT in the spirit of collaboration and openness which is what its all about.
If you’re involved in a cultural project or want to be then you can register with Open Culture and post to any of the sections – Words, Pictures, Video or Culture Swap.
You will see that we have our Liverpool Art Prize call for nominations in the Words section and also our Call for Sponsors in the Culture Swap section in the hope that organisations or individuals who are looking to sponsor or support our event will see it and make us an offer (hint).
There is also a useful and fast-growing links or signposting page
All that’s needed now is for more people to use it and spread the word.

Liverpool photographer Colin Serjent has added a series of his new photographs, taken during the summer, to his website.
