Artists Invited to Compete for £20,000 Liverpool Commission
Thursday May 1, 2008
Artists working in any medium, anywhere in the world, are invited to bid for the chance of a £20,000 commission to create a new map of Liverpool. The map, which will be displayed in the new Museum of Liverpool when it opens in 2010, will be based on ideas and suggestions submitted by readers of the Liverpool Daily Post. The people of Merseyside and those with Liverpool connections worldwide have been asked to decide where they think the boundaries of Liverpool really lie, geographically, historically and culturally. The results will contribute towards the source material for the Liverpool Map artwork.
The project is being funded by National Museums Liverpool, Liverpool Daily Post, Open Culture, Liverpool Culture Company and British drama producer Phil Redmond. Submissions of expressions of interest for the commission are due in Liverpool by June 30.
Full details about the project and how to submit an expression of interest at the Museum of Liverpool website
