Contemporary Visual Art Programme

Exhibition Early Evening Opening

Thursday 23rd Sept

Open throughout the Festival’s three weeks, this year’s curated visual art programme is stronger than ever as it explores the relationship between Art & Architecture - the commonalities, contrasts and conflicts in the built environment that we inhabit but often never truly see.

Art intervenes in buildings and spaces throughout Wirksworth, and this year there is a strong international flavour. Moving image is also a feature of the programme.
