Locws International

Locws International works with international artists to create temporary visual arts projects for public and accessible spaces across the city of Swansea. In each project, place or context is integral to the work and, through the use of a broad variety of locations, Locws International provides a unique platform in which contemporary art can be experienced

Through its innovative programme, Locws International is committed to providing new opportunities for artists and operates within a flexible and supportive framework to enable the production of progressive and dynamic work. Partnerships are key to Locws International events and the organisation strives to collaborate with a broad range of artists, people, venues and businesses to develop and maximize creative opportunities across the city

Locws International was established in 1999 by artists Tim Davies and David Hastie and has to date brought over 40 projects to Swansea

 

locws projects 2008

Following the success of previous events, Locws International will present new artworks by international and Welsh contemporary visual artists in accessible public spaces across the City of Swansea in Locws Projects. The artworks will reflect the artists’ response to the people, character and history of the city and involve sections of the community in their production

Locws Projects will be staged to coincide with Swansea Festival in October 2008. More details to be announced soon
