SUMMARY:Williamson Art Gallery & Museum: IB18: Williamson Art Gallery: Brig
 itte Jurack\, Oxton Rock
DESCRIPTION:In the newly landscaped courtyard garden of the Williamson Art 
 Gallery\, Brigitte Jurack has placed large multi-coloured and highly patte
 rned sculptures\, one on the floor and one raised off the ground by the br
 ick wall.\n\nInspired by Oxton Road\, one of the most culturally diverse r
 oads in Wirral\, Brigitte Jurack’s new work is made up of highly pattern
 ed multi-coloured sculptures. The road is home to the much-loved Iranian f
 ruit seller K&amp\;K\, the new Thai food store\, Polish and International 
 food shops\, the popular record shop Skeleton and numerous charity\, hardw
 are\, model-making and electrical shops.\n\nThe multi-coloured and modern\
 , audacious\, vibrant ‘rock’ sculpture is solid enough to sit. It is a
  cross between jazz\, Acid House\, the Singh Twin’s decorative work and 
 Peter Blake’s Dazzle Ferry. It is bright and glossy\, with a similar fee
 l to Della Robbia Pottery that it will contrast beautifully with the stone
  tones of the hard landscaping in the new Green Gallery.\n\nJurack’s oth
 er recent projects in Wirral are displayed in the company of the rock\, ra
 ised up over viewers’ heads pulling focus back to community groups aroun
 d Birkenhead.\n\nHer career started studying sculpture at Kunstakademie D
 üsseldorf\, Glasgow School of Art and Chelsea College of Art. As co-found
 er of international performance group Foreign Investment Jurack has exhibi
 ted widely\, including time as Henry Moore Sculpture Fellow\, shortlisted 
 for the Liverpool Art Prize and exhibitions/projects in Rio de Janeiro\, K
 iev\, Oslo and New Delhi.\n\nThe gallery is the latest addition to the Wil
 liamson Art Gallery’s exhibition space\, launched in June 2018\, and occ
 upied for the first time by Brigitte Jurack for Independents Biennial 2018
 .\n\nVisitors to the gallery for the commission will also see a major exhi
 bition by Tom Wood and Cian Quayle as part of the festival.\n\n--\n\n14 Ju
 ly - 28 October
