signs of war
Milkandsugar Gallery - Tea Building (former RIBA gallery)
82 Wood Street
Liverpool L1 4DQ
1x1.4m pigment colour prints. As part of Look11 - Liverpool's
International Photography Festival.
Liverpool has more memorials to war and monuments symbolising
heroes or battles won, in one square mile, than any city I know.
New public war memorials are unveiled in the city regularly. A new
statue for The King's Liverpool Regiment, 'Liverpool Pals', is planned
to be erected for the centenary of WWI.
These public monuments are respectful and emotional reminders to
the many lives lost at war and proudly celebrate those who fought
for King/Queen and country. They are permanent symbols of British
conflict and are a constant reminder that we have a long continous
history as an active warring nation.
These architectural sculptures are placed in prominent public areas
and help reinforce our notion of belonging and national pride. They
may also encourage our collective acceptance of our current wars.

two rivers
EDGEspace
34 Slater Street
Liverpool L1 4BX
open Tuesday to Saturday 12-6pm
Liverpool-based arts organisation High Tide
launches EDGEspace, a unique cultural venue promoting Experimental
Dialogues for Generating Eco-culture. For more details see the High
Tide web site.
This exhibition brings together a selection from two bodies of work
showing the changing urbanised landscape surrounding two iconic
rivers. The River Mersey from Stockport to Liverpool 1986-88 and
the River Taff from the Brecon Beacons to Cardiff 1995-96: from
Liverpool's former airport and now filled-in docks to the natural
tidal ‘Tiger Bay’ re-branded as ‘Cardiff Bay’
with the construction of a barrage to create a permanent waterfront
development.
