SUMMARY:Catherine Goodman: Do you remember me…
DESCRIPTION:Catherine Goodman: Do you remember me…\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Catherine Goodman: Do you remember me…\n\n\n\nDo you remember me… is a major new exhibition at Waddesdon\, showcasing never before seen works by Catherine Goodman. \n\n\n\nDisplayed in the Coach House Gallery and the Drawings Room of the Manor\, the exhibition focuses on a new body of work\, including a selection of her new paintings\, drawings\, collages and works on paper which capture the landscape of Corfu and its rugged\, vibrant beauty. \n\n\n\nFor over 12 years\, celebrated British artist Catherine Goodman has been visiting the Greek island of Corfu. Each visit\, she returns to the same\, isolated point of the island where a grove of ancient\, gnarled olive trees is framed by the bright blue sea and sky\, to draw what she sees. Returning to her studio\, Goodman translates these drawings into collages and paintings. \n\n\n\nCatherine Goodman’s art is rooted in observational drawing. Through this daily act\, the artist examines and places her personal experience in an intense relationship with the natural environment. As a result\, her paintings are charged with colour and gesture to create deeply atmospheric and engaging experiences for the viewer. \n\n\n\n\n“These works are an exploration of the relationship I have formed with a piece of nature\, a landscape that I have got to know intimately over many years. When I visit the olive grove now\, I have the sense of the landscape knowing me as well as I know it. I sense the trees looking back at me as I look at them\, and my drawing is a silent dialogue between us.”—Catherine Goodman \n\n\n\n\nA highlight of the exhibition is surely the monumental\, seven-panelled Frieze which depicts a grove of ancient olive trees framed by the vivid blues of the sea and sky behind. It will be complemented by a triptych of a single tree captured through the day – morning\, midday and evening – as well as further paintings and a suite of powerful pastel drawings. \n\n\n\nOne of the inspirations for the paintings\, and particularly the seven-panelled Frieze\, is Ovid’s great poem\, Metamorphoses\, specifically the legend of the nymph Daphne\, extracts from which are hand-scribed by the artist on the wall above the paintings. The mythological imagery in this poem\, and Daphne’s transformation into a tree to escape Apollo’s pursuit\, is a recurring theme for the artist. \n\n\n\n\n“There can be few artists working today for whom landscape holds such an intense and personal connection as Catherine Goodman. In this work\, she creates extraordinary visual encounters with trees that become more characters – old friends – than natural forms…the work is complex\, layered\, powerful\, and thoughtful and invites close looking.”—Pippa Shirley\, Director of Waddesdon \n\n\n\n\nAbout Catherine Goodman \n\n\n\nCatherine Goodman (b. 1961) is an artist based in London\, working between her London studios and Somerset. She trained at London’s Camberwell School of Arts & Crafts and the Royal Academy Schools\, at which she won the Royal Academy Gold Medal in 1987. \n\n\n\nGoodman’s paintings are held in numerous private and public collections including the National Portrait Gallery\, the Fitzwilliam Museum Cambridge and the Royal Collection Trust. \n\n\n\nCentral to her artistic process is the act of drawing from observation\, whether from life\, objects or the great masters and their works. Goodman sees her role as an educator as being integral to her artistic identity\, and in 2000\, she co-established the Royal Drawing School with HRH The Prince of Wales to address the increasing absence of observational drawing in art education. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTicketing information\n\n\n\nDates & times:10.00am to 4.00pm on Wednesdays to Sundays from 07 June to 29 October 2023 \n\n\n\nLocation: Coach House Gallery and the Drawings Room of Waddesdon Manor

SUMMARY:Women and War: From the Fringes to the Front Line
DESCRIPTION:Women and War: From the Fringes to the Front Line\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Women and War: From the Fringes to the Front Line\n\n\n\nWomen & War: From the Fringes to the Front Line is a new exhibition to tell the stories of women in the armed forces opening on 03 June to 10 September 2023 at Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum in Woodstock. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition will explore the diverse experiences of women who have been involved with all aspects of military life\, from the ‘fringes’ of history to those now taking on frontline roles in the armed forces today – using unique\, personal stories\, pen portraits of women in historical and modern roles feature throughout. \n\n\n\nSeveral objects\, on loan from individuals and organisations that have also shared their stories for the exhibition\, will go on show at the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum for the first time. \n\n\n\nThese include an Air Transport Auxiliary jacket which belonged to Mary Watkins of Leafield\, Oxfordshire\, who took her flying lessons in Witney. She was the youngest pilot in the county when she began in 1937. Her story will be told with thanks to Maidenhead Heritage Centre and ATA Museum. \n\n\n\nA series of letters and a pair of officer’s gloves belonging to Rev. Elsie Chamberlain\, on loan from the Royal Army Chaplains’ Museum\, help illustrate the story of the first female Chaplain in the RAF\, whose appointment sparked protest from both the RAF and the Church of England in 1946. Her name was originally excluded from RAF lists\, and her service was concealed.

SUMMARY:About Labyrinth: Knossos\, Myth & Reality
DESCRIPTION:About Labyrinth: Knossos\, Myth & Reality\n\n\n\nAccording to legend\, an elaborate labyrinth was built at Knossos on the island of Crete to hold a ferocious Minotaur. Discover the palace of Knossos\, and the search for the labyrinth\, in this major exhibition in Oxford. \n\n\n\nThe palace of Knossos\, discovered and excavated over 100 years ago\, was the centre of a Bronze Age civilisation of people we now call the Minoans\, named after the legendary King Minos.  \n\n\n\nThis will be the first UK exhibition to focus on Knossos and will include over 100 objects that have never left Crete and Greece before\, alongside discoveries from the Ashmolean’s Sir Arthur Evans Archive. \n\n\n\nArchaeologist Sir Arthur Evans led excavations at Knossos in the early 20th century and would later re-imagine and partially restore the palace.  \n\n\n\nHis archive at the Ashmolean has been central to understanding the site of Knossos\, and many of his excavation plans\, artworks and records will be on display alongside objects from the site. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nPriority tickets for members and patrons \n\n\n\nBook members’ tickets \n\n\n\nEntry to the exhibition is free for members\, but the Ashmolean advises pre-booking a timed slot\, especially at busier periods\, to guarantee entry. You will need your 13- or 14- digit membership Number to book. \n\n\n\nNot a member? \n\n\n\nMembers enjoy priority booking\, unlimited exhibition entry\, exclusive members-only preview days\, plus members-only events\, a members’ magazine posted to you twice a year\, and shop\, café and restaurant discounts. \n\n\n\nBecome a member \n\n\n\nGeneral admission tickets \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGeneral admission tickets are not yet available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLadies in Blue Fresco\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMember preview day\n\n\n\nJoin the Ashmolean for an exclusive members-only preview of the exhibition from 10.00am to 5.00pm on Thursday\, 09 February  \n\n\n\nOnly Ashmolean members can join the exclusive\, members-only preview of the upcoming Labyrinth: Knossos\, Myth & Reality exhibition the day before it opens to the public. \n\n\n\nIt is anticipated that the Preview Day will be very busy\, so if you wish to secure entry at a particular time slot without waiting\, we advise pre-booking your free tickets\, but it is not mandatory. \n\n\n\nBook Labyrinth Preview tickets \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBull-Leaping Fresco\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLabyrinth: Knossos\, Myth & Reality Curator’s Talk\n\n\n\nWith Dr Andrew Shapland\, Sir Arthur Evans Curator of Bronze Age and Classical Greece at the Ashmolean \n\n\n\nLabyrinth: Knossos\, Myth & Reality is the first major exhibition in the UK about Knossos. This archaeological site was famous in myth as the place where the Minotaur was imprisoned in a labyrinth and in history as the centre of the Bronze Age Minoan civilisation\, the home of the earliest farmers in Europe and a thriving Greek and Roman city. \n\n\n\nDr Shapland’s introductory talk will follow the thread of this exciting interactive exhibition\, tracing the history of exploration of Knossos\, from the early travellers searching for the mythical Labyrinth to more recent discoveries\, which include evidence for human sacrifice. \n\n\n\nDr Shapland will especially explore the excavations of Sir Arthur Evans\, whose archive at the Ashmolean is the single most important resource for understanding the site of Knossos. \n\n\n\nThe talk will take place onsite at The Taylorian\, St Giles\, and online via Zoom from 5.00pm to 6.00pm on Wednesday\, 22 February. \n\n\n\nTickets are £8.00 and will be available soon. \n\n\n\nBooking is required.
