Bearpit Outdoor Gallery Exhibition

Date: Saturday, Aug 10 2019 - Saturday, Aug 17 2019
Venue: SPACE at PRSC

Photographs showing memories of the “optimistic experiment in expressive freedom” that was the Bearpit Outdoor Gallery.

“Whatever else people think of the Bearpit, before the recent council take-back it had grown into a space covered in art, and a part of the visual culture of the city.

“Everything graff and street-art could be seen down there, ceramic installations, huge (and never defaced!) murals, pasteups and stickers, tags and throwies, impromptu exhibitions, and even a few big installations which took over the whole Bearpit. Not to mention Ursa the Bear herself!”
