contemporary craft - a-n The Artists Information Company

Radical Craft: Alternative Ways of Making is a new touring exhibition that presents works by renowned outsider artists alongside those of self-taught artists who face barriers to the art world because of health, disability, social circumstance or isolation.

A new roving festival, Acts of Making, invites audiences in the West Midlands and Tyne & Wear to perceive craft differently through the less expected media of performance and installation. Pippa Koszerek talks to Catherine Bertola, one of six artist-makers taking part.
