‘Capital’ is a month of exhibitions and site-specific works across the city centre of Newcastle upon Tyne. ‘Capital’ features twenty-seven artists working in the city. Through a variety of work and viewpoints, each artist was invited to examine their relationship to the history, culture and perceptions of a rapidly changing city, one that is repositioning itself as a centre of attention. ‘Capital’ was selected by Cleo Broda, Clare Stephenson and Simon Webb.
‘Capital’ was a Vane exhibition presented at the Charlton Bonds Building and public sites in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Paul Stone, co-director of Vane, looks to the future of the organisation and its continuing role in the cultural life of the north east of England.
Social historian Bill Lancaster discusses the development of the distinct regional identity and culture of north east England.
