This year’s theme for the Liverpool Biennial 2008 is ‘MADE UP’.
In response, TAO Liverpool will launch with UN-MADE, a two-week exploration of the actual process of creating and presenting new work. This is a reaction to the pre-planned, pre-designed, clinical method of showing artwork in a conventional gallery formula.
On the 20th September TAO Liverpool will unlock six of its buildings to artists and the public as empty spaces. Selected artists will react to these bare shells with the challenge of publicly manifesting their creations within a brief window of two weeks. Any visitor will have the opportunity to see the process and progress of the developing works, leading up to the public view on the 2nd October at 5.55pm until 10.01pm. This marks the beginning of the UN-MADE festival weekend and continues over the 3rd, 4th & 5th October.
Submission deadline for UN-MADE is 19/09/2008 at 1:23 pm

PÁLINÁ JÓNSDÓTTIR: THE SEA MARE – TABLEAUX VIVANT NOUVEAU
(Performance: Sunday September 14th, 2008 at 4:30pm)
ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
On May 27th of 2008, the celebrated beastologist, Professor Rosengarten, identified a LIVING ancient sea beast on the banks of the Hudson River at Peekskill, New York. After thorough examination of the beast, experts believe it to be a species known as Sea Mare--which was thought to have become extinct somewhere towards the end of the Pagan Era. It is postulated that before washing ashore on the Hudson, Rosengarten's living Sea Mare traveled 2.744 miles across the Atlantic from its country of origin: Iceland.
The phenomenal living Seamare will have its first public appearance at the HVCCA on Sunday September 14th, 2008 at 4:30pm. On that occasion, Professor Rosengarten will give a lecture on his remarkable new discovery.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Páliná Jónsdóttir began her performance career at the age of 9 at the National Theater in Reykjavik and since her work has pushed the boundaries of artistic disciplines creating inventive progressive theatre. A post-graduate of the Conservatoire National Superieure de Musique et de Danse de Lyon and a graduate from the The Drama Academy of Iceland, Palína also studied at the Icelandic Ballet Institute, The Reykjavik School of Singing and The University of Iceland, for Philosophy and Literature.
