Hello again

Dear all,
Had a great time in Liverpool and sorry to miss out on all the new networking spin-offs (visit etc.) since The Winner Takes It All? event.

I'm on this blog site because of a local debate/issues down South London - concerning possible Peckham Biennale. I'm not sure we're looking at the Liverpool Biennale as a model. However in the fact that the programme in Liverpool is trying to do something different - trying to engage with locality and with the situation as is - as opposed to a model of the art 'festival' that's more about parachuting in International Artists.

It would be great to hear some thoughts from outside London - as I always feel that South of the River is a Region (seperated from London) - and in that respect has very different ethos/culture to offer (just as Liverpool say has). Any way stuff the Regions analogy as the local/glocal is where things really can and do happen.

Any thoughts.

Charlie
