Donna Berry

I photographed Donna Berry yesterday who is a Liverpool based artist I've worked with many times over the years.  This time I was photographing her new piece of work which is on display at NOVAS' Contemporary Urban Centre, an amazing new Gallery on Greenland Street.  As well as loads of new gallery space, the centre has a ground floor cafe bar and will be opening studio spaces, education and resource areas and a theatre/cinema!  This debut show features 70 pieces of work whilst also on display at the centre is a selection of work first ever Liverpool Art Prize.  This competition was organised by Art In Liverpool and features work by Emma Rodgers, The Singh Twins, Imogen Stidworthy, Jayne Lawless, Gareth Kemp, Mary Fitzpatrick.
