Liverpool's Chinatown in heart of biennial

The largest contemporary arts festival in Britain will have a heavy Chinese presence.

This year, the Liverpool Biennial, the largest contemporary art festival in Britain, is taking inspiration from its own city, and a central theme is the city's Chinatown.

Echoes of China and Liverpool's Chinatown will resound in spaces across the city in everyday settings, such as supermarkets, and in large spaces, such as a now-disused and historical brewery in the city center. Works by 15 artists from across the world will be featured.
