NEWS.. I AM THE WARRIOR Vs. WORCESTER OPEN 2013

To coincide with the Worcester Open 2013 W-CA and PITT projects have commissioned the artists Juneau Projects to show I Am The Warrior.
Everyone, regardless of selection for the main exhibition, who has entered the Worcester Open will have the option of having their work displayed in this ongoing artist project. I Am The Warrior is a serial art event for an open display of creativity. During the Open exhibition there will be a dedicated space for this event. Artists, non-artists and hobbyists are invited to share their paintings, their knitting and pottery, their processes and ideas all in this area defined as I Am The Warrior.

Open exhibition and prize (now £1000) - at The Worcester Museum and Gallery, ground floor.

W-CA
have invited six selectors to advise in the selection of work to be exhibited in the Worcester Open 2013.
Selection is an important and difficult task, so when 'selecting the selectors'  for the Worcester Open it has been essential for W-CA to take into consideration each selectors' accomplishments, knowledge and professional experience as well as their relationship to Worcester.  W-CA are proud to present a panel of selectors who have clearly provided a significant and innovative contribution to contemporary and critical art discourse nationwide and more specifically within the West Midlands.
