Adrian Searle is next in the Whitworth Art Gallery’s Tuesday Talks programme. Chief art critic for the Guardian since 1996, he trained as a painter and began writing in 1976 for Artscribe magazine, and continues to contribute to art magazines and journals. He has also curated several exhibitions across Europe and taught at numerous art schools including De Ateliers in Amsterdam and the Royal College of Art as well as being a Turner Prize Juror. Part of a weekly series running until 5 March, expect an informal chat exploring the driving forces, influences and sources of inspiration within contemporary art.
