SUMMARY:Pat Suet-Bik Hui & the Three Perfections
DESCRIPTION:Pat Suet-Bik Hui & the Three Perfections\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Pat Suet-Bik Hui & the Three Perfections\n\n\n\nThis exhibition celebrates the work of Pat Suet-Bik Hui 許雪碧 (b. 1943)\, a US-based Hong Kong artist\, shown alongside others who explore the tradition of the ‘three perfections’ 三絕 – the harmonious blending of poetry\, calligraphy\, and painting. \n\n\n\nFeaturing works by Hui\, her contemporaries\, her teacher Lui Shou-Kwan\, and artists of his generation\, as well as earlier examples from the 17th to 19th centuries\, the exhibition offers a rich context for understanding Hui as both an innovator and a guardian of tradition. \n\n\n\nIn this artistic lineage\, calligraphic brushstrokes carry as much compositional weight as painted forms\, while poetry and imagery combine to create expressions neither can achieve alone. \n\n\n\nHui’s contemporary approach merges abstract and semi-abstract ink and colour washes with understated calligraphy\, inscribing poems that reflect on themes including love\, loss\, and the quiet joys of drinking. \n\n\n\nVisitors will find translations of many inscribed poems and guidance on interpreting the interplay of painting\, calligraphy\, and poetry within individual works. \n\n\n\nHui gifted her paintings to art historian Michael Sullivan\, whose collection was bequeathed to the Ashmolean Museum in 2013. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrice: \n\n\n\nFree \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nGallery 11 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Painting with Poem by Xin Qiji\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui & Wucius Wong\, 1987\, ink & colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Painting with poem by Paul Ka-Yin Kwok\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui & Paul Ka-Yin Kwok\, 1999\, ink colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		Painting with poem by Nara Singde\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui\, 1991\, ink & colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum

SUMMARY:St Edward’s School Art Teachers: Circa 500
DESCRIPTION:St Edward’s School Art Teachers: Circa 500\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout St Edward’s School Art Teachers: Circa 500\n\n\n\nCirca 500 is composed of eleven artists who spend their days teaching\, questioning\, and building alongside the next generation of artists at St Edward’s School.  \n\n\n\nThis exhibition turns that practice inward\, revealing the breadth of disciplines that animate their department: ceramics\, sculpture\, textiles\, painting\, print\, photography\, graphics\, and film. \n\n\n\nWhat connects them is not a single medium but a shared curiosity. Clay and thread\, paint and colour\, lens and screen\, ink and object each hold their own language. Together\, they create a conversation about process\, experiment\, and the shifting roles they inhabit as educators and artists. \n\n\n\nThe works on display emerge from the overlap of classroom and studio\, from the restless space between guiding others and pursuing individual investigations. They are presented not as finished answers but as open propositions\, fragments of dialogue\, and invitations to look closer. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree entry \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 11 to Friday 27 March 2026 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\nExhibition Opening: \n\n\n\nThursday 12 March 5.00pm to 7.00pm \n\n\n\nPlease join in for drinks to celebrate the opening of this exhibition \n\n\n\nFree event / no booking required \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The North Wall Arts Centre\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\nThe North Wall Arts Centre is an an award-winning theatre\, gallery and performing arts centre located in Summertown\, North Oxford.

SUMMARY:1984
DESCRIPTION:1984\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout 1984 \n\n\n\n‘To the future or to the past\, to a time when thought is free: From the age of uniformity\, from the age of Big Brother\, from the age of doublethink… greetings!’ \n\n\n\nAward-winning Box Tale Soup presents a stunning new adaptation of Orwell’s dystopian classic. \n\n\n\nKnown for their ingenious sets and slick storytelling\, Box Tale Soup’s unique puppetry becomes a striking metaphor for Orwell’s chilling vision of power and control.  \n\n\n\nThe year is 1984\, perhaps – it is impossible to tell for certain. We are being watched\, Big Brother is everywhere\, truth changes daily\, and everyone conforms. But for Winston Smith\, insignificant cog in the Party’s vast machine\, this half-life is not enough.  \n\n\n\nHe dreams of freedom\, but is he the only one? Dreams can be deadly when rebellion begins with a thought. \n\n\n\nFeaturing the voices of Sophie Aldred & Joanna Lumley\, with Simon Russell Beale as the voice of Big Brother. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReviews\n\n\n\n\nEdinburgh Fringe 2025 Official Sell Out Show “They are wonderful.” \n\n\n\nThe Times \n\n\n\n\n\n“…1984 is their latest triumph.” ★★★★★ \n\n\n\nBroadway Baby \n\n\n\n\n\n“…an incredible feat of storytelling.” ★★★★★ \n\n\n\nStarburst Magazine \n\n\n\n\n\n“thought-provoking\, striking production…” ★★★★★ \n\n\n\nBritish Theatre Guide \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFull price – £17.00 \n\n\n\nConcessions (Student\, disability\, benefits\, under 16) – £15.30 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nThursday 19 March 2026 at 7.30pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Cornerstone Arts Centre\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCornerstone Arts Centre is a purpose-built\, professional arts\, culture and entertainment venue in the heart of Didcot\, brought to you by the South Oxfordshire District Council. \n\n\n\nOpened in 2008\, it presents a high-quality programme of live performances\, participatory activities\, exhibitions and outreach work that meet the needs and enhance the experiences of the local community and beyond. \n\n\n\nThe RIBA award-nominated building comprises a 220-seat auditorium\, an art gallery\, a dance studio\, and spaces for workshops and community activities.
