Grizedale Arts: Projects: Roadshow

Roadshow

23/05/2003 until 08/06/2003

The intention of Roadshow was to take a touring programme of live art and link it with local cultures at a series of 'out of the mainstream' venues across the UK.

The project evolved as it progressed with each venue creating a markedly different 2 day event. Including a rolling programme of a Battle of the Bands, including a gospel meeting, death metal and Welsh folk music. The artists found themselves working closely with audiences outside of their usual frame of reference creating a vital and dynamic mix that had lasting impact on many of the artists and public.

There is a dedicated publication available from us with texts by Mark Beasley and Dan Fox.
