Art in the Car Park is a diverse group show in response to the CCP Car Park, Liverpool. The result is a body of new artwork that weaves into the social, economic, political, historical and geographical situation of the site and the city at large. 

Capital Conversations is a two-day seminar involving conversation, debate, provocation and performance, with keynote speakers from the UK and Europe, who will deliver papers and case studies on a variety of themes that have dance, culture, regeneration and legacy at their heart. 

This is an opportunity for anyone involved in dance, promotion, cultural programming, community regeneration and social impact to come together and contribute to this exciting event. These events will particularly interest artists, presenters, dance students and lecturers, local authority arts officers, journalists, arts council officers and arts curators.

The contemporary art world is at times unfathomable and intangible. What makes a decorated dead bull sell for £10 million, while your most talented mate struggles to scrape a decent review and 50 squids? How do you get from art student, to art super star?
Many consider this apparent lottery to be directly related to the whims of Charles Saatchi, and in a way it is. The power of Saatchi’s wallet is undoubtedly a force with considerable influence, in the same way that Simon Cowell’s taste in music shapes what a large proportion of the population considers to be a decent tune. But the world of contemporary art is governed by a multitude of factors, all working co-dependently to support artists, gallerists, curators, critics, writers and an inexhaustible list of other interested individuals.
