The Monument and the Changing City is a day-long event for artists, urban planners, historians, public art commissioners and people with an interest in collective memory and the city. The symposium will examine the impact, purpose and aesthetic merit of public commemorative and memorial works from across the world, and the role of public memory within the changing city. The event will include presentations by leading academics and artists Paul Gough, Lubaina Himid, Alan Rice, Charles Quick, Chris Meigh-Andrews and Jonathan Vickery, alongside open debate and a tour of Preston’s Cenotaph by architect Charlie Mackeith. Tickets cost £15 + VAT students, £36 + VAT full price. A limited-number of free places are available for Lancashire artists.
