SUMMARY:Moʻolelo of the Ahupuaʻa A Re-imagined Journey into a Hawaiian Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Mo‘olelo of the Ahupuaʻa tells the various stories of living\, working\, playing and learning within a sustainable landscape.\n\nThese are themes within the epic Hawaiian myth Hiʻiakaikapoliopele\, which Hawaiian artist Solomon Enos depicts in this series of paintings. The heroine Hiʻiaka is on a quest that takes her throughout the various landscapes and worlds of the islands. On the way she encounters an underground hidden world of shape-shifting insect/arachnid-people\, who invite her to share their plentiful resources. \nThe seven paintings that feature in this display are from a wider series\, following from a previous display which highlighted the Hawaiian tradition of mo‘olelo\, a way of storing and sharing Hawaiian cultural memory that guides future generations in understanding the world. In each painting the artist re-imagines this hidden world\, creating an entomological character based on a Hawaiian species. Like these species\, each has an important role to play in this eco-system and has the relevant clothing and implements. This display draws on the theme the Ahupuaʻa – a traditional Hawaiian land division that runs from the mountain tops to the sea embracing the ecosystems within\, and introduces further characters from Solomon Enos’ imagining of the Hiʻiakaikapoliopele.

SUMMARY:Stories around a Feather Cloak
DESCRIPTION:At the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford\, England\, you can see a beautiful Ahu’ula\, a feather cloak from Hawaii. It is on display on the ground floor\, in a case that has a curtain covering the glass\, which when drawn back reveals the striking yellow\, red and black design worked in tiny feathers. Draw back the curtain to see the feather cloaks on display and read the interpretation to learn how these Ahu ‘ula (cloaks) were used to reinforce political and diplomatic transactions\, solidify relationships\, and engender obligations. This feather cloak inspired the original commission for the Poakalani Quilting group\, who went on to make fifteen quilts for the museum\, which are on display in the special exhibition\, Hawai’i Ma uka to Ma kai: Quilting the Hawaiian Landscape.

SUMMARY:Hawaii: Ma uka to Ma kai Quilting the Hawaiian Landscape
DESCRIPTION:The ahupua‘a\, a land division extending from the mountains to the sea\, has long been the cornerstone of sustainable land management for Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiian) communities. “Ma uka” (toward the mountains) and “Ma kai” (toward the sea) are not merely directional references; they signify a deep understanding of care and access to natural and cultural resources within these regions. \nThrough a combination of contemporary and historic mea noʻeau (skillfully created works) this special exhibition explores the past\, present\, and future of the ahupua‘a system. Hawaiian quilts by the Honolulu-based Poakalani Quilters are curated in narrative that follows the ahupua‘a and the people working with the landscape\, from mountain forests to the coastal waters\, and as well as introducing the Hawaiian royal history of the palatial grounds of their group meeting place. \nJoin us on a journey through time through the ahupua‘a in this special exhibition: witness the disruption of indigenous practices over the past 150 years\, accompanied by a decline in Hawaiian ecosystems\, alongside stories of resilience and restoration. Travelling from Ma uka to Ma kai\, discover efforts of contemporary practitioners who embrace 21st-century sustainable stewardship\, and how looking back towards traditional practices offers a glimpse into a future of abundance and harmony between communities and their environment.

SUMMARY:Hulu Nēnē By MANAOLA
DESCRIPTION:Discover the beautifully sculptural Hulu Nēnē dress by fashion icon Manaola Yap\, a designer and cultural practitioner from Hawaiʻi\, within the Pitt Rivers Museum galleries. \nDisplayed in a case in near the centre of the museum court on the ground floor\, this installation is part of the journey through the Hawaiian landscape offered through the museum’s current special exhibition Hawaii: Ma uk to Ma kai. \nThrough the special collection of their designs\, Manaola honors and pays homage to the great warrior chief\, Kamehameha\, Pai`ea. Born on Hawai`i Island in secrecy and taken to safety by a swift runner to the high cliffs of `Awini Kohala\, the infant king was hidden in the caves to escape the order of Alapa`i Nui that the infant be put to death. The Designer gains his inspiration from ancestral chants\, and stories speaking of the youthful years of the royal child.

SUMMARY:Revisiting Robert Louis Stevenson in the Pacific
DESCRIPTION:In this Archive Case display\, artists Simon Grennan and Solomon Enos re-examine the work of nineteenth century author Robert Louis Stevenson through dynamic graphic storytelling. Stevenson travelled to several Pacific islands before settling in Sāmoa in 1890. Referencing this time in Sāmoa\, as well as Hawai’i and Europe\, related items are brought together from the Museum’s Pacific collections and displayed alongside historical publications of Stevenson’s Pacific stories\, set within new graphic remediations of these stories as comics by British and Hawaiian artists. The illustration-led display explores the journey of ideas across media (remediation) in the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries\, Robert Louis Stevenson’s fascination with ‘the foreign’\, and post-colonialism in the Pacific\, including new poetry focused on Hawaiian\, Samoan and European post-colonialism. \nThe display at the Pitt Rivers Museum celebrates work that is part of a wider research project ‘Remediating Stevenson’\, led by a UK research team (Michelle Keown\, Shari Sabeti and Alice Kelly\, Edinburgh University; and Simon Grennan\, Chester University)\, in partnership with the National University of Sāmoa. The project explores Robert Louise Stevenson’s Pacific fiction\, travels\, and friendship with Indigenous Pacific communities. The Remediating Robert Louis Stevenson project is producing the first ever multilingual graphic adaptation of the three stories from Robert Louis Stevenson’s Island Nights’ Entertainments (1893). The project is also commissioning new poetry by indigenous Pacific authors\, and developing a set of accompanying teaching resources for use in Sāmoa\, Hawai’i and Scotland through participatory arts workshops and film-making.

SUMMARY:Unfinished - a poem by Carol Ann Carl
DESCRIPTION:Unfinished is a poem written by Carol Ann Carl\, a daughter of the island of Pohnpei in the Federated States of Micronesia. With a background in Biochemistry and health\, her community work revolves around Micronesian youth and women. Carol Ann was entrusted to be the keeper of traditional origin stories\, which she shares through her writings. Storytelling and writing are personal forms of pedagogical healing. \nUnfinished was commissioned by Marenka Thompson-Odlum\, as part of the Digital Engagement & Innovation project. It exists both as written ‘concrete’ poetry and as a recorded spoken word piece. Unfinished is written from the perspective of the 31 pearl shell tools that the museum has described as ‘unfinished shell shanks of a fishing hook’ which were taken from the King’s tomb at the archaeological site of Nan Madol on Pohnpei. Nan Madol is a series of more than 100 islets off the south-east coast of Pohnpei that were constructed with walls of basalt and coral boulders. These islets harbour the remains of stone palaces\, temples\, tombs and residential domains built between 1100 and 1500 CE. These ruins represent the ceremonial centre of the Saudeleur dynasty\, a vibrant period in Pacific Island culture. The huge scale of the edifices\, their technical sophistication and the concentration of megalithic structures bear testimony to complex social and religious practices of the island societies of the period. \nThe field collector of the shell shanks\, Frederick William Christian\, was a graduate of Balliol College\, Oxford. In his 1899 book\, The Caroline Islands: Travel in the Sea of the Little Lands\, he recounts the excavation of ‘Eighty pearl-shell shanks of fish-hooks in a more or less perfect condition\, exactly resembling those used all over Polynesia before the coming of the white man. The hook itself was generally of bone\, but we found some fragments of pearl-shell which were clearly relics of the barb.’ \nChristian was also a close friend of Robert Louis Stevenson when he lived in the neighbouring Pacific Island of Samoa. It was Stevenson who encouraged Christian to travel to remote groups of Pacific islands and study their languages. In his books\, he often references Stevenson’s works such as Beach of Falesá.

SUMMARY:PAT SUET-BIK HUI & THE THREE PERFECTIONS
DESCRIPTION:FREE EXHIBITION\n\n\n\n20 Sep 2025 to 28 Jun 2026 \nGallery 11 \nAdmission is FREE \n\nPat Suet-Bik Hui 許雪碧 (b. 1943) is a US-based Hong Kong artist. This exhibition showcases her work alongside others who engage with the tradition of the ‘three perfections’ 三絕\, which brings together the three art forms of poetry\, calligraphy\, and painting. \nThe exhibition includes works by Hui\, her contemporaries\, her teacher Lui Shou-Kwan and others of his generation\, as well as earlier examples from the 17th\, 18th\, and 19th centuries. Seeing Hui alongside these other artists will give visitors the context to understand her as both innovator and standard-bearer of tradition. \nIn this tradition\, calligraphic brushstrokes are as integral to compositional balance as those used in painting. Likewise\, images conjured by a poem and those rendered in a painting combine to create effects neither can achieve alone. \nHui’s modern interpretation fuses abstract and semi-abstract washes of colour and ink with simple\, restrained calligraphy inscribing poems reflecting on a variety of themes\, from love\, to loss\, to the pleasures of drinking. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n \nPainting with Poem by Xin Qiji\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui & Wucius Wong\, 1987\, ink & colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n \nPainting with poem by Paul Ka-Yin Kwok\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui & Paul Ka-Yin Kwok\, 1999\, ink colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n \nPainting with poem by Nara Singde\, Pat Suet-Bik Hui\, 1991\, ink & colour on paper © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nIn the exhibition gallery there will be translations of many of the poems inscribed on the paintings\, as well as guidance on how to interpret the relationship between painting\, calligraphy and poetry within particular works. \nHui gifted her works to the art-historian Michael Sullivan\, whose painting collection was bequeathed to the Ashmolean in 2013.

SUMMARY:ROMAN OXFORDSHIRE COINS DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION:6 Dec 2025 – 29 Nov 2026  \nGallery 7 \nAdmission is FREE \n\nCoinage remains one of the best represented and most recognisable elements of Roman material culture. \nThis display will showcase a selection of Roman coins in the Ashmolean collection that were found in Oxfordshire and tell the story of the region from the Roman conquest in 43 CE to the end of Roman Britain\, around 410 CE. \nSome of the coins reflect everyday life through trade\, soldiers’ pay\, or the collection of taxes. Others tell us about Britain’s position in the empire or served as offerings people made to the gods. \nDiscover a group of Iron Age gold staters buried in a flint nodule around the time of the Roman invasion\, known as the Henley Hoard\, and various Roman coins from Claudius I to the end of Roman Britain. These historic finds were discovered in local towns and villages\, such as Cowley\, Dorchester\, Asthall\, Horton\, Shiplake and Childrey\, and add to the evidence for coin use and circulation in Roman Oxfordshire. \n \nMap (detail) accompanying the Roman Oxfordshire coins display in the Money Gallery \n\n  \nRoman coins were an important means of communication. They were carried across the empire in purses\, spreading images and messages central to Roman society: religion\, politics\, the Imperial family\, or the empire’s prosperity. As with modern money\, most Roman coins also had more straightforward messages\, showing exactly who held power. \nThese coins are not always beautiful objects\, but each is a small\, powerful voice connecting us to the people of Roman Oxfordshire and their place in the wider Roman world. \nHeader image: Obverse and reverse detail of silver coin of Carausius © Ashmolean Museum \n\nFound anything locally? \nSince 1997\, the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) has recorded more than 360\,000 Roman coins from England and Wales\, including nearly 15\,000 from Oxfordshire. \nIf you think you may have found a Roman coin\, it’s important to have it properly recorded.

SUMMARY:We're Going To Need A Bigger Brush!
DESCRIPTION:Shadowlight Supported Studio.\nA powerful celebration of identity\, creativity and community\, this group exhibition showcases artwork and film by learning-disabled and neurodivergent artists. \nJoin us for a new exhibition of work by the Shadowlight Artists\, in collaboration with Film Oxford. The exhibition title humorously plays on the famous quote from the film Jaws\, “you’re going to need a bigger boat!”\, reflecting the size of this creative task. \nSince April 2025\, the group has met weekly to shape the direction of their studio\, define shared goals\, and co-create artworks in a lively\, supportive environment. They have also collaborated with professional artists including Chris Oakley\, Poppy Johnson-Doherty and Su Frizzell. \nWorking across film\, photography\, printmaking\, costume and prop making\, the Shadowlight Artists explore themes of identity\, transformation and self-representation. Their work embraces alternate personas\, reimagined characters and personal narratives\, drawing on everything from classic movie posters to everyday materials transformed into costumes and sets. \n\nWe offer a range of facilities to ensure we are accessible to visitors.

SUMMARY:IMAGES OF AUTHORITY PORTRAITS BETWEEN IRAN AND EUROPE
DESCRIPTION:As we grapple with the possibilities and excesses of our image-obsessed culture\, this free exhibition looks back at the way in which a specific kind of image – portraits – dominated the lives of three contemporaneous rulers: Fath Ali Shah Qajar (1797–1834)\, King George III (1760–1820)\, and Napoleon Bonaparte (1799–1814). \nJuxtaposing portraits on different media from across Iran\, Britain and France\, the display explores similar and unique strategies developed to convey the personal and political aspirations of these ambitious leaders and astute image-makers. \nDisplayed for the first time in over a century are also two recently restored Qajar paintings and some of the discoveries made during their conservation treatment.

This exhibition showcases her work alongside others who engage with the tradition of the ‘three perfections’ 三絕\, which brings together the three art forms of poetry\, calligraphy\, and painting. \nThe exhibition includes works by Hui\, her contemporaries\, her teacher Lui Shou-Kwan and others of his generation\, as well as earlier examples from the 17th\, 18th\, and 19th centuries. Seeing Hui alongside these other artists will give visitors the context to understand her as both innovator and standard-bearer of tradition. \nIn this tradition\, calligraphic brushstrokes are as integral to compositional balance as those used in painting. Likewise\, images conjured by a poem and those rendered in a painting combine to create effects neither can achieve alone. \nHui’s modern interpretation fuses abstract and semi-abstract washes of colour and ink with simple\, restrained calligraphy inscribing poems reflecting on a variety of themes\, from love\, to loss\, to the pleasures of drinking.

SUMMARY:Through the Blue: A Koestler Arts exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Venue\, Timing and Cost\n\nVenue:\n\nOld Fire Station\n\n\n\nDate(s):\n\nThursday\, 29 January 2026 to Saturday\, 14 March 2026\n\n\n\nTiming:\n\nTuesday – Saturday\, 10am – 4pm\n\n\n\nCost:\n\nFREE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKoestler Arts and the Old Fire Station present Through the Blue\, an exhibition showcasing artwork\, music and writing made in criminal justice settings in Berkshire\, Buckinghamshire\, Oxfordshire and Surrey. \nKoestler Arts is an arts charity that works with every prison in the UK to unlock hope\, talent and potential. Each piece in the exhibition has been made by someone in a prison\, secure hospital\, young offender institution or on probation in the region and entered into the 2025 Koestler Awards. \nThe exhibition has been co-curated by a group of people on probation in Oxford and Reading\, who considered more than 600 Koestler Awards entries from the region and selected 70 to be displayed. They were drawn to intriguing works that resonated with their own experience of the criminal justice system and reflected their varied creative interests. Boundaries and thresholds loomed large in their recollections of their own time in prison and are depicted in many of the exhibited artworks: walls\, doors\, windows\, hatches. Means of containing\, but also of seeing and moving through. \nTogether\, the exhibited artworks explore the experience of navigating a way through obstacles\, drudgery\, sadness and towards freedom; and both the excitement and fear that prospect can inspire. We also see the potential for creativity to blur and breach these boundaries through works made to share with loved ones and to mark moments of humour and connection. \nMany of the works deal with light and dark\, in and out\, and the space and movement between these states. The colour blue\, prominent in the selection and exhibition design\, underscores this duality. While blue is associated with cold and melancholy\, it is also associated with blue skies and sunny days. It is the frightening\, unknown depths of the ocean and an expansive horizon\, calm and full of possibility. \nSome of the artworks will be available to purchase through the Koestler Arts website\, with a portion going to the artists as well as to Koestler Arts and Victim Support. There will also be opportunities for visitors to write feedback on their favourite pieces in the exhibition\, which will be sent directly to the artists. \nOne of the exhibition co-curators comments:\n“Enjoy the variety in this exhibition. Contemplate the stories behind these works. See the hope and often the humour. Be drawn along the journeys illustrated here. These artists are showing you their world and their future.” \nFiona Curran\, CEO of Koestler Arts comments:\n“I am delighted that Koestler Arts has been able to produce its first show in Oxford\, with the Old Fire Station. The powerful artwork in the exhibition represents the hard work of hundreds of people in the area who have put their efforts into sharing their voices with the outside world through the 2025 Koestler Awards\, and the many educators and staff supporting them to access the benefits of creativity.” \nABOUT KOESTLER ARTS: \nKoestler Arts is an arts charity that encourages people in every prison in the UK\, and other criminal justice settings\, to access the proven benefits of the arts. The charity’s vision is that the power of the arts unlocks hope\, talent and potential in the lives of people in the criminal justice system. \nKoestler Arts provides an annual art awards programme — the Koestler Awards — open to people in prisons\, secure hospitals\, immigration removal centres and secure children’s homes\, as well as people on probation and community sentences. It also offers a post-release arts mentoring scheme\, arts membership for people in prison\, family engagement opportunities\, and a programme of exhibitions\, events and publications. \nTo deliver its mission\, Koestler Arts works in partnership with other organisations\, art world experts\, and people with lived experience of the criminal justice system; past exhibition curators have included Ai Weiwei\, Jeremy Deller and John Costi\, Camille Walala\, Antony Gormley\, Benjamin Zephaniah\, Speech Debelle\, Sarah Lucas\, Grayson Perry\, the families of people in prison and graduates of the Koestler Arts mentoring programme. \nkoestlerarts.org.uk \n\n\n\n\nFurther Information\n\nContact Details:\n\n\nOld Fire Station\n40 George St\, Oxford OX1 2AQ\nwww.oldfirestation.org.uk\n01865 263980 \nFREE ENTRY – NO TICKET REQUIRED

SUMMARY:John le Carré: Tradecraft
DESCRIPTION:Discover the enduring legacy of one of the greatest writers of the past century. \nTradecraft draws upon the vast archive of John le Carré\, otherwise known as David Cornwell. Held at the Bodleian Libraries\, this material – much of which is displayed for the first time – spans Cornwell’s entire life and career\, from his time as a student at Lincoln College\, Oxford\, to drafts penned in his final weeks. \nThis exhibition offers unique insights into the working methods of the writer who shaped the modern spy novel. ‘Tradecraft’ is a word le Carré used to describe the techniques of espionage\, but it might also be applied to his own skilled craft as a writer and social commentator. \nCo-curated by le Carré’s collaborator and friend Professor Federico Varese and Dr Jessica Douthwaite with the support of the le Carré family\, John le Carré: Tradecraft will provide a multifaceted portrait of the author’s life and creative process\, featuring research\, drafts\, and corrections for his novels\, non-fiction\, and adaptations\, as well as personal correspondence. \nHighlights include annotated manuscripts of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy\, The Constant Gardener\, and The Little Drummer Girl; previously unseen family photographs; original sketches and watercolour paintings; and letters to fans and friends. \nPlease note: This exhibition contains references and images related to war\, violence\, guns and death that some visitors may find upsetting.

SUMMARY:Dancing with Jane Austen
DESCRIPTION:Marking the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth\, Dancing with Austen explores how important dance was to Austen’s gentry society and its crucial role in her creativity. \nDancing moves the plot in all of Jane Austen’s novels.

SUMMARY:Brokenness and repair exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Venue:\n\nThe Glass Tank\, Oxford Brookes University\n\n\n\nDate(s):\n\nMonday\, 26 January 2026 to Friday\, 6 February 2026\n\n\n\nTiming:\n\n9am – 5pm\n\n\n\nCost:\n\n0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInspired by the sublime beauty of techniques of visual repair across cultures\, these works invite reflection on brokenness and why it matters. \nIn recent years\, the traditional Japanese technique of repairing broken pottery using lacquer\, often embellished with gold or other precious metals\, known as ‘kintsugi’ has fascinated and inspired not only contemporary artists\, but also pscyhologists\, philosophers\, scientists and archaeologists. But the idea of caring for something that is broken and finding beauty in its imperfection resonates much more widely. Whether we are living with the painful yet precious memories of loss\, or trying to reassemble places of belonging from the remnants of abandoned buildings\, brokenness and repair speak to our fundamental ways of being in the world. \nThrough sculpture\, sound\, images\, and pottery\, this exhibition creates a space of dialogue between Japanese aesthetics of brokenness and repair and those of other cultures. Each piece invites visitors to reflect on the complex\, sometimes challenging beauty of brokenness\, and the care and attention involved in repair. \nThe exhibition includes original works from Rob Simpkins\, Katie Taylor\, Johanna Tulloch\, Dan O’Brien\, Natasha Durie\, Juliet Eccles\, and Rachel Barbaresi\, as well as kintsugi pieces by Iku Nishikawa (Oxford Kintsugi). \nAll are invited to join us to meet the artists and organisers over wine and refreshments. \nThis exhibition and reception was made possible through the generous support of the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation. \n\n\n\n\nFurther Information\n\nContact Details:\n\n\nhttps://www.brookes.ac.uk/about-brookes/…\nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/brokennes… \ndobrien@brookes.ac.uk
