Looking for: interactive art that can be delivered digitally from UK artists
Deadline: 5PM, Friday 26 Feb., 2021
The Lowry is thrilled to announce three commissions of £10,000 each for mid-career artists and companies to create new work for the lockdown age for presentation via our #LoveLowry programme, through which we collate and present a series of online performances, exhibitions and more for audiences while our doors are closed.
A year into these strange times, we want to provide space for artists to reimagine their practice for digital stages like ours, to explore how best we can connect to each other and to the art we consume when we are so physically removed from the performance.
