SUMMARY:Art of World War II - A Personal Collection

The county’s military history museum is located in the gardens of the Oxfordshire Museum on Park Street in Woodstock\, on the doorstep of Blenheim Palace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n						\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n\n				\n				\n\n	From left to right (top to bottom): Pearl Falconer\, A Fond Farewell; Carl Erickson\, Did People Used to Come Here for Fun; Bernard Scott\, Kindertransport; James Walker Tucker\, Letters from Home; Roladn Davies\, Luftwaffe Attack on Anzio Villas; Vivian Buley Preparations for War; Shearer Armstrong\, The Senior Warden; Ruskin Spear\, VE Night

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.

SUMMARY:Dia al-Azzawi - Painting Poetry
DESCRIPTION:About Dia al-Azzawi – Painting Poetry\n\n\n\nDia al-Azzawi is an internationally recognised Iraqi painter and sculptor who has been living and working in London since the late 1970s. Best known for monumental and colourful canvasses\, his work spans many genres\, including a type of artist books known in Arabic as ‘dafatir’. \n\n\n\nA combination of painting and text\, dafatir take various forms – accordions\, square and oblong booklets\, cigar boxes or other sculptural assemblages – but are not meant to be read or viewed in a traditional way. Rather than illustrating the poetry within\, which is usually drawn from the pre-Islamic traditions or based on collaborations with contemporary poets\, the paintings are free and emotive responses to it. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition explores the development of dafatir over 40 years of artistic production and considers the evolution of Azzawi’s distinctive pictorial language – a fusion of words and images – which would come to dominate much of his work. Therefore\, the installation also includes drawings\, prints and a monumental ten-metre tapestry immortalising the impact of war on the city of Mosul and displayed in public for the first time. \n\n\n\nAn additional display in the Islamic Middle East Gallery 31\, designed as a companion display to the Dia al-Azzawi: Painting Poetry exhibition\, explores the impact of dafatir on a younger generation of Iraqi artists. \n\n\n\nDownload the exhibition leaflet \n\n\n\n“Dafatir represents an unusual and rather ‘fluid’ artistic genre – neither entirely book nor entirely sculpture. They speak to past traditions such as Islamic illustrated manuscripts\, and yet they also fully embrace modern aesthetics and contemporary concerns. As such they have become a thriving space for artistic expression and experimentation\, as well as a site for defiance and resilience when produced in reaction to violence and conflict.”—Dr Francesca Leoni\, Exhibition curator \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook your free tickets to visit the Museum\, café and shop.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTicketing information\n\n\n\nDates & times:This exhibition is open until 11 Jun 2023 \n\n\n\nLocation: Gallery 8 \n\n\n\nPrices:Admission is FREE \n\n\n\nBooking is recommended to guarantee entry\, but walk-up tickets are available at the Museum. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeader image: “Of Layla: Qasim Haddad” by Dia al-Azzawi\, 1998.
