Artistic Productions
We co-produced a number of artistic commissions for CORNERS, developed with the four UK-based artists we selected to take part in the CORNERS of Europe programme, joining a group of over 50 creative professionals from across Europe. Our artists joined the CORNERS Xpedition to Puglia in Southern Italy in December 2014 and the North East England Xpedition in March 2015, where they developed their proposals for international co-productions for future European touring and presentation with other CORNERS artists from our partner organisations:
