Conversations in Painting: Fiesta MK2 is a multi-venue painting festival that connects artists from Tees Valley to a broader UK and international network. It celebrates why painting continues to fascinate and engage audiences whilst looking at historical and contemporary contexts.
Conversations in Painting is an artist led group which aims to open up a conversation between artists and the public around contemporary painting practice. The group serves as a hub and network for supporting Tees Valley based painting practitioners that also has a national/international remit. The project seeks to highlight the strength of the painting community evolving from Tees Valley and establish the area as a place that supports painting practice. Conversations in Painting contributes to the field of contemporary painting through exhibitions, talks, workshops and studio visits.
