The Desired Futures Symposium was financially supported by Turning Point North East as part of their Critical Dialogue Programme for the Visual Arts and is a partnership between Platform A, Mima and University of Teesside. The visual arts sector in the North East are keen to support and encourage greater Critical Dialogue around Contemporary Art and artists and this is the first of such an event in Teesside of which we hope there will be more.
