Liz Buckley

I am currently coming to the end of an Art History degree at Manchester University, and undertaking a Gallery and Museum Studies Masters after I've graduated. I write for a few online magazines/websites and other publications when I get the chance. My main artistic interests are in post world war 2 and contemporary art. I hope to one day be a curator or art director in a gallery, or possibly a professional art writer. Email liz_buckley@hotmail.co.uk for any enquiries.
