The Plot in The Clearing - Lewis Biggs
Sorry, this event has sold out
Join us on the final Wednesday of Folkestone Triennial for this special Plot in the Clearing event, 'Plotting' with Professor Lewis Biggs, the curator of Folkestone Triennial. This is your chance to celebrate the exhibition, ask and be asked questions.
Our Plot in the Clearing events are a series of informal, salon-style, expert-led talks followed by question and answer sessions. Drinks and nibbles will be available throughout.
The last two Triennials (Lookout in 2014 & double edge in 2017) have also been curated by Professor Lewis Biggs O.B.E.,. Lewis has led on the development of the artistic strategy which has put the Folkestone Triennial on the international arts map. He is currently Distinguished Professor of Public Art at the University of Shanghai, and a Trustee of the Liverpool John Moores Exhibition Trust (JMLET), the International Award for Art Criticism (IAAC) and the Institute for Public Art (IPA), of which he is the Chair.
Lewis was Advisory Curator for Kaunas Biennial 2019, Curator of Land Art Mongolia Biennial 2018, and Co-curator for the 2013 Aichi Triennale (Nagoya, Japan). He is advising Kaunas European Capital of Culture 2022 on its public art programme. He was Artistic Director and CEO of Liverpool Biennial 2000-2011, and Director of Tate Liverpool 1990-2000.
