For August's Artist of the Month we've selected Hull-based artist Sabine Jeanne Bieli.

We are pleased to announce that Adelaida Antúnez Egurbide and Alfie Gibbs (known collectively as 'Mousethings') are the winners of our Coventry Biennial Commission Opportunity. They will be screening their film 'A Litany' (pt 1 & 2) at this year's Coventry Biennial which takes place 4 October - 24 November 2019.

In May 2019 artists, practitioners, educators, researchers and producers gathered together in St Helens for the fourth 'With For About' conference run by Heart of Glass in partnership with Axisweb and Create. We made a short film about the event and spoke to some of the speakers and attendees.

For #Five2Watch this week we've selected five artists who refer to destruction within their work: Tim Shaw, Hanah Horack, Amanda Loomes, Richard Monahan and Peter Finnemore.

New Art Highlights of the week includes Adele Vye, Pippa Eason, Jenny Hammerton and Stephen Broadbent.

In this month's Playlist we present a selection of videos that take a look at digital living. Featuring: Cultura Plasmic Inc, Sophie Bullock, James Irwin and Helen Kilby-Nelson.

We have more copies of our Social Works?: Open for sale. Social Works?: Open speaks to the precariousness of socially engaged practice during an extended period of government-led cuts to arts funding across the UK, and the continued importance of maintaining and supporting a critical voice within socially engaged art.Contributors include: Jen Delos Reyes, Kerry Morrison, R.M. Sánchez-Camus, Claire Mead, They Are Here, Harvey Dimond, Lauren Velvick, Les Monaghan and Joe Cotgrave. 

In our monthly What's On Guide we share events from our Axis Directory members that are happening in August.
