Liverpool Biennial demystified

Posted 2 October 2006

The Liverpool Biennial is the UK’s largest visual arts festival, a feast for lovers of exciting new art. Just to repeat: it’s big. If you’re hoping to use a spare couple of hours in Liverpool to get an overview of the Biennial, forget it. It will take you almost that long to get to grips with the guides. There's a lot of written material to plough through. But if you read this before you go, your path should be smoother.
