Sculpture in Painting

The Henry Moore institute in Leeds' latest exhibition explores the relationship between art and 3D. A campaign, starting next week aims to maximise the number of visitors by using large-format graphics, posters, and giving away free merchandise. It sounds like the campaign might reel in the visitors, but I just hope the exhibition itself lives up to all the hype. Having seen several exhibitions at the Henry Moore institute, I can't say I've ever been overly impressed; The last one, 'The New Monumentality' was hardly exhilarating.

FACT

FACT (The Foundation for Art & Creative Technology) is a Multimedia complex in Liverpool which was founded in 1989 to inspire people, and promote film, video and new media. FACT offers many opportunities for audiences, and a support system for artists.



The building itself is aesthetically impressive, covered in zinc tiles and LED columns; it's the perfect home for such an expressive and stimulating complex. Facilities include galleries for moving image and streaming media broadcasts, a Medialab for workshops and the development and production of artists' projects and The Box gallery and projection space. Not to mention a cafe, bar and 3 cinema picture house, screening the latest arthouse releases.

FACT really is an inspiring organisation, providing endless opportunities in the world of film and new media. Definitely worth a visit at least.
