‘Vane99’ followed a similar pattern to ‘Vane97’ and ‘Vane98’, though with an increase in both the number of exhibitions and events (over eighty) and artists taking part (almost 200). There was also an increase in visitors from outside the region and ‘Vane99’ coincided with similar artist-led events in Manchester (‘MART99’) and Liverpool (‘Tracy’ – the artist-led strand of the first ever Liverpool Biennial).
