REASONS TO GO SEE
TI-IE LIVERPOOL BIENNIAL
1 It’s your last chance The UK's biggest international festival of contemporary art is into its final month. Catch it while you can.
2 Cowboys and Indians Trigger Wang Hoy Cheung's hilarious five screen video an installation at the Bluecoat Gallery reimagines the day silent cinema cowboy Roy Rogers came to the Adelphi Hotel with his horse Trigger in 1954.
3 Yoko Ono‘s boobles There's been a big backlash (mostly whipped up by the decrepit local newspaper 7719 Echo) against Yoko Ono's huge photos of breasts and vaginas but there are still a few pieces left worth seeing. Showing all over the city.
4 Warehouse collectives Jump Ship Rat. also known as the Blade Factory. located slightly outside the city centre on Greenland St. These old warehouses run by artistic collectives house some of the very best avant garde and outsider art at the festival.
5 33-45 Creative Members’ Bar Classy bar situated in a residential recording studio in the heart of the city's creative quarter. The bar is currently exhibiting the original cover art of Scott Jones and Elizabeth Harvey whose sleeve artwork has appeared on albums by the Coral and the Zutons. (Paul Dale)
