Liverpool University Press — culture focus  
spacer
Since its inception, LUP has aimed to reflect the social, cultural and economic importance of the Liverpool and its region through its own publications and through collaboration with other local organizations and institutions. LUP also collaborates with national organizations.
Bluecoat (www.bluecoatartscentre.com)
With a history dating back to 1907, the Bluecoat in Liverpool is Britain’s oldest arts centre and it will reopen in the autumn of 2007 after a stunning redevelopment. LUP is starting its collaboration with the Bluecoat in 2007 with the republication of Art in a City, to be followed in 2008 by Art in a City Revisited. Bluecoat exhibition catalogues will also feature in this exciting new collaboration.
FACT (www.fact.co.uk)
FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology) in Liverpool is the UK’s leading organization for the development, support and exhibition of film, video and new media art. LUP is at the beginning of a major collaboration with FACT that has so far involved the joint publication of Mark Lewis (2006) and The Ghosts of Songs: The Film Art of the Black Audio Film Collective (2007), both published in association with major FACT exhibitions. LUP also acts as exclusive distributor of books published by FACT on its own account.
Open Eye Gallery (www.openeye.org.uk)
Open Eye Gallery first opened in Liverpool in 1977. Promoting the practice, enjoyment and understanding of photography, Open Eye is a significant cultural player in the north-west of England. LUP first collaboration with Open Eye is The Water’s Edge (2007), published in association with a photographic commission and exhibition of photographs by Michelle Sank. Further collaborations are being planned.
National Museums Liverpool (www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk)
LUP’s relationship with National Museums Liverpool (NML) has now spanned two decades, and has involved working with the Merseyside Maritime Museum, The Walker Art Gallery and World Museum Liverpool. Recent collaborative publications including Transatlantic Slavery: Against Human Dignity (2005) and The Herculaneum Pottery: Liverpool’s Forgotten Glory (2005).
Public Monuments and Sculpture Association (www.pmsa.org.uk)
LUP publishes the acclaimed Public Sculpture of Britain series with the PMSA. This unique publishing venture aims to catalogue public sculpture from the classic to the contemporary throughout Britain. The first volume in the series Public Sculpture of Liverpool was published in 1997 and since then there have been eight further volumes, the latest being Public Sculpture of Staffordshire & the Black Country. LUP also publishes Sculpture Journal, Britain’s foremost scholarly journal devoted to sculpture, on behalf of the PMSA.
Tate Liverpool (www.tate.org.uk)
The Tate Liverpool Critical Forum series began publication in 1993 and its remit is to focus attention on the dynamic construction of art histories as stimulated by the act of exhibiting. Recent titles in the series include Art–Money–Parties and Summer of Love. Outside the series, LUP and Tate Liverpool also collaborated on Testing the Water: Young People and Galleries (2000) and the exhibition catalogue Centre of the Creative Universe: Liverpool and the Avant-Garde (2007).
