Best of Merseyside

There are a number of open exhibitions held throughout the year in venues across the six merseyside boroughs and we hosted the Liverpool open at Editions last December. Someone had the great idea of making a selection from these exhibitions and bringing them together to be exhibited in Liverpool at the Conservation Centre, in a best of Merseywide exhibition. Being involved in the organisation of the exhibition has been exciting and brought me into contact with many of the curators of the galleries across Merseyside, The exhibition can’t cover all the artists working across Merseyside but it gives an exciting overview of the breadth of talent both professional and enthusiastic amateur. It’s an interesting conterpoint to the John Moores exhibition…so why not see both. Art Merseywide: the best of the openexhibitions is at the Conservation Centre, Whitechapel, Liverpool from 23rd September to 31st October 2010
