In our colourful and constantly moving world\, it seems even more important to the two photographers to train the human eye to observe works in monochrome. \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\nEvent launch and discussion \n\n\n\nOBSCURUM exhibition launch and discussion with the photographers will be held in conjunction with The Oxford Italian Association at the JdP Music Building on 13 May from 6.30pm to 8.30pm. \n\n\n\nEntrance:General admission – £5.00The Oxford Italian Association members – £2.00Students – Free.
