And the winner is...


Thursday 01 July 10

Artist next to posterWinner David Jacques at Metal.

Art in Liverpool does the most fantastic job in tirelessly supporting local artists and exhibitions across Merseyside. The Liverpool Art Prize was founded by the website in 2008 and has very quickly become one of the highlights in Liverpool’s visual arts calendar. This year one of the judges was our very own director of art galleries Reyahn King.

Last night they annouced their winner, the multimedia artist David Jacques, to an eager audience at Metal. Excitingly for us, along with the £2,000 the first prize includes the invitation to exhibit work at the Walker Art Gallery. David will be working with our curators on what will go on display over the next few months, so watch this space for more info.
