Middlesbrough Art Weekender Documentation 2018

Curated by Liam Slevin & Paul Stewart



FOREWORD Art has the power to do many things. It shapes and builds as easily as it disrupts and divides. One of the most powerful things art can do is allow us to connect. Utilizing Middlesbrough as a central point, The Middlesbrough Art Weekender 2018 builds a network of connections. Presenting local and international work, the festival creates a community of over fifty artists. Over the course of one weekend, it offers up a reimagined Middlesbrough, one in which an industrial warehouse becomes a contemporary gallery, an old bazaar, a cinema screen. Drawing on the regions strength, it provides a smorgasbord of events, happenings and exhibitions: a sonic river cruise along the Tees, an artist-in-residence at the newly renovated Middlesbrough Town Hall, an audio-visual experience in the old post office. Connecting the old and new, the known and unknown, MAW18 transforms space, allowing the audience to gain another view of the ordinary. This publication is a record of the second Middlesbrough Art Weekender, its artists and the people who took part. It is a record to show that, through connection, we discover unknown paths, moving beyond the territories we know, into the new.
