Alistair Hudson from Grizedale Arts came to talk to us yesterday, about their role in the Office of useful Arts http://arteutil.net/main/
(as part of ‘Art Turning left’) http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-liverpool/exhibition/art-turning-left-how-values-changed-making-1789-2013
I think I must be living in a complete bubble sometimes as I spend far too much time concentrating on just my own work and trying to make a living. Why did I not know that they did so much for the community? When I think of Grizedale, I think of the outdoor sculpture space – not this! I love that they sold local produce at Frieze to help fund one of their projects. Being a bit of a reluctant ‘working with the public’ sort of artist, it actually made me want to go out and do something. Go Grizedale! http://www.grizedale.org/
