Liverpool Biennial 2025 BEDROCK

Join us for Liverpool Biennial, the UK’s largest contemporary visual arts festival, with free exhibitions and events taking place across the city's public spaces, galleries and museums from 7 June - 14 September 2025. The 13th edition of the Biennial, BEDROCK, is inspired by the physical and social foundations of Liverpool and the people, places and values that ground us.

At Tate Liverpool + RIBA North, visitors can experience artworks by Christine Sun Kim, Sheila Hicks, Fred Wilson and Mounira Al Solh, shown in Liverpool for the first time, alongside Cevdet Erek, Antonio Jose Guzman & Iva Jankovic and Hadassa Ngamba, making her debut in the UK.

These artists explore the deep connections to the places and people that shape them, which include links to their families, both chosen and biological. They also look into the idea of homeland as a place that can bring a sense of comfort and loss.
