Learning To Love You More

Moves on to the Baltic

I'm happy to announce that selected works from Learning To Love You More Middlesbrough are being exhibited at Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead from this Friday - 16th January until March.

This show will co-incide with an excellent Fluxus show and also the Yoko Ono exhibition, so that's pretty exciting.

Not all works made it in I'm sorry to say - Baltic did their own edit and unfortunately lost quite a few films and 3D works in the process. However, if you participated in the original show, you are invited to Baltic for the reception which takes place from 4-6pm on this coming Friday 16th January.

Also - The Telegraph interviewed me for a piece about LTLYM Middlesbrough and it will be published this Saturday.
Some of the assignments from the show will hopefully be featured in the piece so run out and buy it to see if yr in !!

Thank you again for all yr help, hard work and co-operation in making LTLYM Middlesbrough a success.

I wish you all a very happy new year!
