A brief look back over the month just gone, and what’s on the horizon…

On September 14th, Newcastle Contemporary Art will be hosting the North East Contemporary Visual Art Networks forum. You can find tickets to this event HERE >

Throughout the month of August the High Bridge Works reception area housed a beautiful collection of artworks by studio holder Giedre Ka.

The show explored urban architecture and streetscapes that often get overlooked. You can see more photos from the exhibition HERE >

In mid June Newcastle Contemporary Art hosted a launch event of Common Good. This was a forum for discussing the built environment across the North, with a focus on the importance of inclusivity and diversity in city-making.

Pictured below is a talk given as part of the event by studio holder James Perry of Harper Perry. You can stay up to date with Common Good by clicking HERE >

Taking Space was an event organised by activist Sarah Ackland. It took the form of a five mile run around the city ending at Newcastle Contemporary Art, where runners and guests gathered to share collective experiences of taking up more space in the city through running.

This June, the Newcastle leg of Ladies, Wine & Design celebrated their fifth birthday.
Often hosted here at High Bridge Works, this fantastic group brings together local female and non binary creatives, and is well worthy of celebrating!

Introducing Barbara De Vivi. The life of images, their hybridization and overlapping, is central to De Vivi's research. In her paintings she bridges traditional iconographic motifs with personal instances and contemporary aesthetics, outlining tales that, while referring to a shared cultural heritage, remain open in the coexistence of meanings.

Barbara is soon to leave High Bridge Works for an exciting relocation to Hamburg.
We wish her the best of luck in the future!
