Posted by Catherine Jones on February 22, 2008 2:48 PM | 

One lucky artist will be £2,000 better off next month when the winner of the inaugural Liverpool Art Prize is chosen.
The six shortlisted artists in this new contemporary art award - organised by Art in Liverpool - are ceramics artist Emma Rodgers, painter Gareth Kemp, video artist Imogen Stidworthy, sculptor Jayne Lawless, photographer Mary Fitzpatrick and The Singh Twins.
Their work will be on show at Novas's Contemporary Urban Centre from Friday, February 29 until April 10, with the winner being chosen at an awards ceremony on March 9.
The overall winner will receive £2,000 and there is also a People’s Choice prize of £500 which will be awarded from votes cast by the public, and will provide an opportunity for visitors to the exhibition to express their preference.
