Release the Archive
19 May 2026 5.30-7.30pm
The Bluecoat
Liverpool L1 3BX
Overview
Reflecting on four decades as an artist, Nina Edge is joined by art historian and curator Alice Correia and the Bluecoat’s Bryan Biggs to discuss her long engagement with the arts centre.
The panel will consider the development of Edge’s art as reflected through the archive, from early shows at the Bluecoat to inclusion in Tate Britain’s Women in Revolt. The challenge of documenting such a broad multidisciplinary art practice will be addressed alongside wider questions about how art histories are made and what is excluded from them.
Event supported by DACS whose grant has enabled Edge to develop her own archive, and The National Archives.
Free, booking required
