Liverpool Biennial, the UK’s largest visual arts festival, started in 1999 under the patronage of James Moores. Since its inception, the Bluecoat has been a partner, providing a venue for most of the International exhibitions and being on the curatorial team for some of them. It has also devised programmes of live art, run participation projects, hosted events and worked with the artists in the Biennial’s Independent strand.
This display, drawn from the Bluecoat’s archive, includes photos of exhibitions and performances, publications and other printed material, and a slide show charting the Biennial at Bluecoat over the last 24 years.
The photos included are a selection documenting the many artists the Bluecoat has worked with over eleven Biennials. An accompanying slideshow in the display features more images and details of the full Biennial programme at the arts centre, 1999-2021.
Event Date: Friday 9th June 2023 - Sunday 17th September 2023
