Picasso: Peace and Freedom

21 May – 30 August 2010, Tate Liverpool, Albert Dock

Tel: 0151 702 7400; www.tate.org.uk/liverpool

Picasso: Peace and Freedom brings together over 150 works by Picasso from across the world, revealing insights into the artist’s life as a political activist and campaigner for peace, challenging the widely held view of the artist as creative genius, playboy and compulsive extrovert.

This is the first exhibition to explore the post-War period of the artist’s life in depth, and reflects a new Picasso for a new time. The exhibition provides a timely look at Picasso’s work in the Cold War era and how the artist transcended the ideological and aesthetic oppositions of East and West.

• 60 Hope Street

Tel: 0151 707 6060; www.60hopestreet.com

One of Liverpool’s most established and best loved restaurants, 60 is one of the stalwarts of splendid Georgian Hope Street. Its three course plus half a bottle of wine seasonal menu is a great offer, served in the restaurant until 6:30pm or downstairs in the bistro until 10:30pm, while the food includes a seasonal menu cooked with local produce, and an excellent reputation for seafood. But we’d be doing it a disservice if we didn’t mention the legendary deep fried jam sandwich with Carnation milk ice cream, a signature dish.

• Jon Lord’s Concerto for Group and Orchestra

Wednesday 16 June 2010, 7:30 pm

Philharmonic Hall, Hope Street

Tel: 0151 709 3789, www.liverpoolphil.com

Deep Purple keyboard-player Jon Lord turns back to his classical composition roots with this performance from ‘Concerto’, which promoted the Times to say of him: ‘In the small but growing field of pop stars who write classical music, Lord is a clear leader.’ While Lord’s best known for his 40-year involvement in rock group Deep Purple, decided in 2002 to devote his time to classical composing, and five years later achieved great acclaim for his ‘Durham Concerto ‘ which made the top 10 in the UK’s Classical Artist Chart and was the highest new entry (number 75) in Classic FM’s 2009 Hall of Fame. His LIverpool performance will also includes songs from To Notice Such Things, his upcoming CD release.
