DESCRIPTION:Ashmolean NOW: Flora Yukhnovich x Daniel Crews-Chubb. Image: Left: 3 Immortals (ultramarine blue)\, Daniel Crews-Chubb\, 2023.

Right: Teeth\, Flora Yukhnovich\, oil on linen\, 2023 © Flora Yukhnovich\, courtesy the artist and Victoria Miro\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Ashmolean NOW: Flora Yukhnovich x Daniel Crews-Chubb\n\n\n\nThe Ashmolean has launched a new exhibition series of contemporary art: Ashmolean NOW\, which invites contemporary artists to create new work inspired by the Ashmolean’s historical collections. \n\n\n\nThe first exhibition is dedicated to contemporary painting. 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’.

It’s a Cotswolds institution\, founded in 2000 by Nell and Toti Gifford and to date it has been visited by over one million people. Giffords is much more than a circus\, it’s a magical nod to old fashioned circus with a glamorous twist. \n\n\n\nIt’s a side-splitting show directed by comedy genius Cal McCrystal that appeals to both young and old and with a cult following of local farmers\, rock stars and A-list celebrities. Step inside the tent into a colourful madcap world of acrobats\, jugglers\, horses\, musicians\, dancers\, and Tweedy the Clown. A production that would rival any West End show. \n\n\n\n“The most fun you can have in a tent. Genius. Children vomiting with laughter.” —Hugh Grant \n\n\n\nLes Enfants du Paradis will take inspiration from French Romanticism in the mid-19th Century \n\n\n\n“Les Enfants du Paradis will be our most lavish show yet!

Kate is also a Giffords Circus choreographer. \n\n\n\nAlso starring in Les Enfants du Paradis are Sergi Buka\, an amazing illusionist\, shadow artist and lanternist who will perform a poetic Chinese shadow act. The Skating Medini (Asia and Dylan Medini) – a dynamic high-speed roller-skating act from one of Italy’s oldest circus families. Amanda Sandow with her beautiful liberty pony act. Foot juggling and aerialist artistes Romy and Alex Michael. The Luna Girls – aerial hoop duo Marina Alvarado de Luna and Markia Ashley Gould. \n\n\n\nThe Ethio-selam Troupe\, a very exciting Ethiopian acrobatic troupe\, who will perform the double Chinese pole.

SUMMARY:Gifts and Books
DESCRIPTION:Books and Gifts is an exhibition at the Weston Library that explores the importance of books as gifts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Gifts and Books exhibition\n\n\n\nThe Bodleian Libraries presents Gifts and Books\, a new exhibition exploring the importance of giving and receiving books. The exhibition\, at the Weston Library\, asks what this apparently simple act\, practised for centuries\, reveals about human relationships and beliefs. \n\n\n\nThe giving and receiving of gifts is fundamental to human societies. \n\n\n\nDrawing on material from ancient Sumerian writing tablets to contemporary fiction for children\, Gifts and Books will explore the importance of gift-giving through books and across time and how this apparently simple act reveals wider interactions\, relationships and belief systems. \n\n\n\nGenerosity. Power. Reverence. Love. Struggle. Obligation. Visitors can explore people’s motivations for giving books across the ages\, including as a religious offering\, a mark of friendship\, or a way to strengthen political alliances.  \n\n\n\nOf the many intriguing items on display is a stunning book made by a young Princess Elizabeth\, later Queen Elizabeth I. She wrote out her translation of The Mirror or Glass of the Sinful Soul and included a finely embroidered cover framing the initials of Queen Katherine Parr\, to whom she gave the book as a New Year’s gift in 1544. The strategic exchange of books was a common practice to cement relationships in the fickle world of the Tudor Court. \n\n\n\nA guitar bought by the romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley will also be on display\, highlighting gift-giving as an act of friendship. Shelley gave the instrument to his friend Jane Williams shortly before his death. It will be displayed alongside his manuscript of the poem ‘With a Guitar.  \n\n\n\nTo Jane’\, which reimagines Shelley\, Jane and her husband Edward as characters in Shakespeare’s The Tempest. Love tokens are represented further in a First Folio of Shakespeare\, opening at a scene from As You Like It\, where Orlando writes love poems and pins them to trees and a 1950s program by computer pioneer Christopher Strachey that generates love letters. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition delves into the relationship between writing\, gifts and religion\, with pieces highlighting how gift-giving has been used across cultures and faiths. A Buddhist narrative\, The Birth Story of the Deer\, written on a set of palm-leaf folios\, exemplifies the ideal of sacrificing oneself to attain perfection.  \n\n\n\nA beautiful Qur’an manuscript that later belonged to an Indian ruler will also be on display\, as will a spectacular medieval Jewish prayer book and books of Christian devotion that include portraits of the donors who paid for their exquisite craftsmanship. \n\n\n\nBooks have often been commissioned\, adapted and regifted. A beautiful\, illuminated page from the Ormesby Psalter will be on display\, featuring two different sets of patrons: one from a pair of families whose marriage alliance seems to have faltered\, another showing the wealthy churchman Robert Ormesby\, after whom the book is now named. Like other medieval precious objects\, it was given and re-given at different times due to its value and altered to suit new owners. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition shows how gifts and books can be bound up in relationships of power\, politics and protest. For example\, it features the extraordinary Olaudah Equiano\, who was treated as property or even ‘given’ as a gift by those who had enslaved him\, but who managed to gain his freedom and write his own life story. \n\n\n\nThe power of the gift to encourage creativity is further explored through books for young readers\, many of which show the act of giving as both joyful and powerful. Writers including Oscar Wilde\, Patience Agbabi\, Shirley Hughes\, Philip Pullman and Zetta Elliott are all represented here. \n\n\n\nGo and explore the meaning of gifts\, exchange and the stories we tell about them. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is curated by Dr Nicholas Perkins\, Associate Professor and Tutor in English\, St Hugh’s College\, University of Oxford. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGifts and Books exhibition highlights\n\n\n\n\n\nOrmesby Psalter\, 13th century\n\n\n\n\n\nOrmesby Psalter\, 13th century\n\n\n\nThe Ormesby Psalter is one of the masterpieces of East Anglian art.

SUMMARY:2023 Langford Arts Festival
DESCRIPTION:2023 Langford Arts Festival. Image: Nigel Gardner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the 2023 Langford Arts Festival\n\n\n\nWith a record 65 artists set to be onboard\, the 2023 Langford Arts Festival will feature works from amateurs and professionals ranging from watercolour\, acrylic and oil paintings\, prints and photography to sculpture\, glass and pottery. \n\n\n\nThere will be something to suit any budget at the festival\, which takes place every two years – from works by sought-after artists for collectors through to pieces for people who just want to find something special for their homes. \n\n\n\nTo reflect its increased scale and scope\, this year’s festival is taking place in five key locations in Langford\, including St Matthew’s Church in Langford\, which dates back to the 11th Century and is the atmospheric setting where the bulk of the artists’ work will be displayed and sold.  \n\n\n\nVisitors are encouraged to see the art on show at the other locations in the village\, like the new sculpture garden\, and experience all that is on offer in Langford. And if you want to watch and try as well as buy\, there will be plenty of live art-based activities taking place in Langford during the festival.  \n\n\n\nLangford regularly attracts visitors from across the UK and abroad. It has a buoyant art-buying community on its doorstep\, so expect the two-day festival and pre-event private view to be well attended.  \n\n\n\nAnd with light lunches and afternoon teas served in the Arts Cafe in the village hall and The Pitstop serving breakfast butties at the free car park\, Langford Arts Festival will provide the perfect day out for families and serious art enthusiasts. \n\n\n\nThe event is the idea of Ginny Bushell\, who lives in Langford and is herself a keen amateur artist. It is run by a special committee and overseen by Langford’s Village Hall committee. \n\n\n\nEntry to the 2023 Langford Arts Festival is free\, but there is an optional catalogue for £2.00 each. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets
