Art Sheffield 2016 is a citywide contemporary art event, curated this year by Martin Clark, Director of Bergen Kunsthall, Norway. It takes as its starting point the political, social, cultural, and material histories of the city of Sheffield, enacted and explored through a carefully selected group of international video, film and sound works, as well as three major new commissions made especially for the exhibition by three British artists.

The title of the exhibition, Up, Down, Top, Bottom, Strange and Charm is taken from the six flavours (or types) of quark: the elementary particles that make up every atom, and the fundamental building blocks of matter.

There is a fantastic programme of events happening around the city, from film screenings to gallery tours, so check out the links here and here;  see if there’s anything that tickles your art fancy!
