SUMMARY:Stained glass conservation exhibition at Greys Court
DESCRIPTION:Greys Court stained glass panels. Image: National Trust/John Hammond\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Stained glass conservation exhibition at Greys Court\n\n\n\nThis year\, the internationally significant stained glass panes at Greys Court have been conserved for future generations to enjoy. \n\n\n\nFollowing critical conservation work\, which has breathed new life into these precious pieces of history\, visit the new exhibition in the house to examine these stained glass panes and appreciate their intricate details. \n\n\n\nThe panels are displayed in the landing window on the stairs. They were placed in their current location after Sir Felix Brunner bought Greys Court in 1937. They were part of his grandfather’s collection of Swiss ceramics\, furniture and weaponry. \n\n\n\nThe designs are incredibly intricate and feature religious stories in both painted and stained glass. On several of the panels is the heraldic crest of a water fountain on a red background – this is the Brunner family crest. \n\n\n\nThe restoration work involved removing the stained-glass panels and replacing them in the integral structure with clear\, UV light-protecting glass. Inside this\, the restored panels are supported in U-channel frames\, secured by metal bars into the stonework. \n\n\n\nEach pane contains a story locked within the historic glass drawings. \n\n\n\nRead more: Exquisite stained glass ‘Wappenscheiben’ returns to Greys Court \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but normal admission charges apply for the venue. \n\n\n\nBooking is not required. \n\n\n\nDates & times:Open daily 11.00am to 3.30pm.

SUMMARY:Kabuki Legends: Part Two
DESCRIPTION:Kabuki Legends: Part Two. Image: Dancing Cranes by Takahashi Hiromitsu\, 2017 © Hiromitsu Takahashi / The Tolman Collection\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Kabuki Legends: Part Two\n\n\n\nStencil Prints by Takahashi Hiromitsu \n\n\n\nJapanese artist Takahashi Hiromitsu creates dynamic\, colourful prints showing exciting moments in kabuki\, a traditional form of dance-drama. This is the second show in a two-part exhibition of his works in Gallery 29. \n\n\n\nHiromitsu’s striking designs are not portraits of actual actors\, but visualisations of famous kabuki roles. \n\n\n\nIn kabuki\, performers wearing elaborate costumes and make-up use stylised movement and song to enact melodramatic stories about love\, loyalty and the clash between duty and emotion. \n\n\n\nThe works recall Japan’s traditional ukiyo-e woodblock actor prints\, but are made using a different technique – kappazuri\, or stencil printing\, originally used for dyeing kimono. This process is complex and labour-intensive\, and Hiromitsu is one of very few artists working in this way today. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition showcases a second selection of these unusual prints from the Ashmolean’s own extensive collection of Hiromitsu’s work\, generously presented by Philip Harris. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrices:Admission is FREE \n\n\n\nDate and times:From 16 February 2024 to 23 February 2025 \n\n\n\nThe museum is open every day from 10.00am to 5.00pm \n\n\n\nLocation:Gallery 29 \n\n\n\nWatch the Kabuki Legends: Part One video

SUMMARY:The Household Cavalry Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The Household Cavalry Exhibition. Image: The Squadron Leader of the Blues and Royals. Pictured from Canary Wharf looking toward The City of London. 40″ x 93.7″ / 101.6cm x 238cm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Household Cavalry Exhibition\n\n\n\nBritish photographic artist Ripley has created twelve large-scale portraits of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment. \n\n\n\nThe imagery features soldiers from The Life Guards and the Blues and Royals mounted on their horses and posed on buildings throughout London\, overlooking the capital from Trafalgar Square to Canary Wharf. \n\n\n\nA boxed set of the twelve portraits was the official Coronation present from the Household Cavalry to His Majesty King Charles III. This was presented by Ripley and senior officers from the Household Cavalry to King Charles III at Buckingham Palace on 15 June 2023. \n\n\n\nRipley works with high-resolution digital composite photography to create large-scale portraits. His primary focus is working with Thoroughbred Racehorses\, creating a feel of the equine master painters but using modern methods to create works of incredible detail and clarity.  \n\n\n\nNotable works include the portrait of ‘Estimate’\, which Ripley created for Queen Elizabeth II in 2016. ‘Estimate’ was owned by the late Queen and won the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot in 2013. \n\n\n\nRipley supports The Household Cavalry Foundation\, whose “Duty of Care” includes operational casualties\, veterans\, serving soldiers and their dependents\, and the Cavalry’s four centuries’ heritage and the welfare of their horses. A percentage of profits raised through sales of these portraits go to this worthy cause. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nLocation:The exhibition is in the Great Hall at Blenheim Palace. \n\n\n\nTickets required:Palace\, Park and Gardens day ticket\, Annual Pass or Privilege Pass. \n\n\n\n\nDiscover more about Ripley’s Household Cavalry Exhibition. \n\n\n\nDiscover more \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAll pictures © Ripley

SUMMARY:Fair Water 
DESCRIPTION:Travel from water source to river mouth to learn about the water inequality that lies below the surface.\nEarth is soaked in water from the core to the atmosphere. \nBut just 3% of the planet’s water is fresh\, and one in four of us doesn’t have access to clean drinking water. How do we protect people’s right to water when there’s not enough\, and how do we adapt to extreme water events? \nFair Water reveals some of the global barriers to water equality and explores how researchers\, communities and policymakers are working together to shape a fair water future. \n\n\n\n	Water has the power to hold our lives in the balance. \nIssues of water insecurity impact not only humans but also freshwater species\, including the Ganges River Dolphin\, Helicopter Catfish\, and the fish and insects native to Britain’s waterways. \nDiscover how communities and engineers in Kenya\, Ethiopia\, and Bangladesh are working to provide access to drinking water and protection against hazards like floods and droughts. \nWith striking photography from Ethiopian artist Aïda Muluneh\, the exhibition reveals how life without clean water has an especially great impact on women’s lives and futures. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nFree entry.

SUMMARY:Into Battle: The Art of British War Comics
DESCRIPTION:Into Battle: The Art of British War Comics. Images: (Left) Bulldog Breed (1965) – ‘Battle Drill’ original artwork by Jordi Penalva. (Right) ‘Pegasus Bridge’ from Battle Picture Weekly No 2 (1975)\, uncredited artist and writer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Into Battle: The Art of British War Comics\n\n\n\nThe county’s military history museum is collaborating with Oxford-based Rebellion Publishing on the new exhibition that will offer visitors a chance to explore the history of British war comics through the archives of classic comic titles such as War Picture Library and Battle Action. \n\n\n\nHugely popular today\, Britain has been publishing comics continuously for over 130 years. During that time\, conflict has remained a staple of comic book storytelling\, and by the 1960s and 1970s\, war stories were the most popular genre. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition\, featuring original comic artwork on public display for the first time\, tells the story of war comics decade by decade – From satirical comic strips and patriotic illustrated story papers of 19th Century and early 20th Century to the revolutionary comics of the 1970s\, which presented much more gritty\, authentic and emotionally-charged stories. \n\n\n\nLong-time readers of comics will be given a nostalgic look back at some of their favourites\, while younger and more recent fans will gain an insight into how their favourite medium has developed over the years. \n\n\n\nDrawing on Rebellion’s extensive archives\, the exhibition features artwork from the very best of British comics – taking in spectacular covers and action-packed panels from the War Picture Library\, Battle Picture Weekly and Battle Action. \n\n\n\nBattle Action\, which Rebellion have recently revived with the work of renowned comic writers and artists such as Garth Ennis (Preacher\, The Boys)\, Keith Burns (Commando Comics\, Johnny Red) and Dab Abnett (Warhammer 40k\, Marvel Comics)\, features heavily throughout. \n\n\n\nImage (cropped): Gun Duel cover (Battle Picture Library\, 1967) by Graham Cotton (Copyright Rebellion Publishing)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe comic\, which was known as Battle Picture Weekly before merging with Action comics in 1977\, notably featured the series Charley’s War by Pat Mills and Jo Colquhoun – regarded as one of the greatest war comics of all time. \n\n\n\nFollowing its working-class hero from underage recruit in 1914 through almost every major event of the war\, the strip sees Charley lose friends in battle\, portraying the human cost of war through the eyes of an ordinary soldier. \n\n\n\nThe incredible artwork on display will includes original 1983 Charley’s War panels by Mill and Colquhoun\, alongside full colour original artwork from Jordi Penalva (Bulldog Breed\, 1965)\, Giorgio de Gaspari (Spy 13\, 1959) and Graham Cotton (Gun Duel\, 1967). \n\n\n\nAlongside much to capture the interest and imagination of adults\, the exhibition will offer younger visitors the chance to discover how comics are made and have a go at creating comics themselves.

It juxtaposes the work of two London-based painters\, Flora Yukhnovich and Daniel Crews-Chubb. \n\n\n\nDespite stylistic differences\, the work of both artists links art historical inspirations with a dynamic and contemporary painterly language. The paintings displayed\, all made specifically for this exhibition\, convey a timeless passion for the medium of painting\, its materials and processes. \n\n\n\nFor this series of three exhibitions in Gallery 8\, each artist will explore different areas of the museum’s broad collections. Ashmolean NOW will feature their four very different points of view. The summer exhibition will be followed by Pio Abad in February 2024 and Bettina von Zwehl in October 2024. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTicketing information\n\n\n\nVenue:Gallery 8 on the Lower Ground Floor \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFlora Yukhnovich\n\n\n\n\n\nFlora Yukhnovich (b. 1990) found herself drawn to the palettes and compositions of the museum’s Dutch and Flemish still life paintings.  \n\n\n\nHer large-sized paintings feature intense red\, pink\, peach and green colours and an abstracted painterly language. Circular forms and soft contours suggest organic growth\, while glowing light and dark contrasts create an illusion of three-dimensional depth. \n\n\n\nYukhnovich’s work playfully and critically explores different notions of femininity in the history of art and popular culture\, looking at contrasting stereotypes like ‘virtuous’ and ‘monstrous’ women. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaniel Crews-Chubb\n\n\n\n\n\nDaniel Crews-Chubb (b. 1984) presents a group of large-scale paintings that take inspiration from ancient sculptures of deities and non-human figures found in the Ashmolean. \n\n\n\nThese ‘immortals’\, as Crews-Chubb calls his fantastical figures\, are created through a laborious process of addition and revision\, including drawing\, impasto\, and collage. \n\n\n\nThe textured patchwork of his canvasses gives Crews-Chubb’s monumental subjects a three-dimensional presence that\, as he describes\, ‘corrodes the boundary between painting and sculpture’.
