John Moores Painting Prize 2014 2014

The John Moores Painting Prize, now in its 57th year, is the leading showcase for contemporary painting in the UK. The competition culminates in an exhibition held at the Walker Art Gallery, which forms a key strand of the Liverpool Biennial.

The catalogue which accompanies the 2014 exhibition features all 52 of the displayed works, including the five prize winners. There are also biographies of the artists, essays from jurors, and images of all of the previous John Moores first prizewinners, including David Hockney in 1967. The catalogue also features the five winners of the John Moores Painting Prize China 2014, which was held for the third time in Shanghai earlier in 2014.
