UN-MADE Festival 2-5 Oct

TAO Liverpool Biennial 2008 UN-MADE. 2 – 5 October 2008
The UN-MADE festival is almost upon us. Since the 20th September, six of TAO Liverpool’s buildings have been open to selected artists and the public. The CHALLENGE for the artists has been to manifest their creations from scratch in less then 2 weeks in response to the empty space and under the scrutiny of the onlooking public. There will be a (PV) Public View this Thursday 2nd October starting at 5:55pm which will also mark the official opening to the UN-MADE Festival Weekend.

The ARTISTS

Tomo and Even – Gregory Scott-Gurner – Sy Hakney – Gemskii – Adrian Pritchard
Brychan Tudor – Emma Warren – Rob and Russell – Karen Madariaga
Alex Nicholson / Mike Drummond / Alex Rogers
 

The Gurner Prize

TAO is pleased to reveal for the first time ever an exciting new award called The Gurner Prize (consisting of 1years FREE studio space & £100 spending money) given to the artist most successful in achieving the challenge of the UN-MADE Exhibition.
