Out Here Curator Tour

Join Matthew Pendergast (Head of Programmes, Castlefield Gallery) for a tour of our exhibition Out Here.

Out Here brings together artists exploring our relationship with nature through drawing, film, painting, performance, photography, prints, sculpture and site-specific artwork. Their practices are grounded in researching the interaction between the human and non-human, often spending time going out into nature or working directly with natural materials.

The exhibition also demonstrates our commitment to placing artists at different career stages side by side, in order to open up new dialogue between their works. Out Here sees internationally renowned artist Shezad Dawdood return to Castlefield Gallery, continuing his longstanding relationship with the gallery, alongside artists living and working in the North of England.
