Manchester Contemporary

Posted on | October 27, 2011 | Comments Off

In case you’re wondering where the Corridor8 team are, tonight you’ll find us mingling at the opening of the Manchester Contemporary. Whilst getting a preview of the latest art from Bureau, Ceri Hand, The International 3 and Workplace galleries, we might also be heard to casually mention the forthcoming third issue of Corridor8, that just so happens to profile the private galleries working in the North. It is of course another new format for the magazine, with new tantalising extras, and a launch date in Newcastle in December.

Just also wanted to mention that the events at MC look good this year too. We’re looking forward to Tom Dickson’s talk (check out the profile in Issue 2 for some background info) and hearing about not only his impressive collection, stored and displayed in his Sheffield mid-terrace, but also his archive of press clippings and memorabilia on every artist in his collection. Thorough stuff.

Newcastle Launch!
