Wirksworth Festival’s 2017 curators shape an exciting line up for this year’s curated exhibition
Here’s a short film made by Gavin Repton of Wolfgang Buttress and Geoff Diego Litherland (this year’s curator) talking about the idea of Wolfgang’s new piece, BEAM and how it relates to Wolfgang’s wider practice and recent work The Hive.
Within the curated exhibition, directly alongside the work of accomplished practitioners, the Festival Curator, Geoff Diego Litherland has hand-picked graduates, Alexandra Rose, Helen Sayer, Hayley Blackwell and Aylwin Greenwood-Lambert.
For 2016, we are pleased to announce that our main exhibition is curated by Geoff Diego Litherland and Wirksworth based artist Dermot Punnett, titled Nature: Here and Now.
