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.

SUMMARY:Pat Suet-Bik Hui and the Three Perfections
DESCRIPTION:Pat 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.

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. Whether the scene of a private ball or a ticketed assembly\, the dance floor measures the course of novels in which readers and characters ‘are all hastening together to perfect felicity’ (Northanger Abbey). \nThis display brings together items from the Bodleian’s collections and from Jane Austen’s House. See a reconstruction of Austen’s writing space at Chawton Cottage\, Hampshire – now Jane Austen’s House – and details from a ball imagined through music\, word\, and dress.

SUMMARY:The Drawing Project
DESCRIPTION:The Drawing Project is a collaborative work involving sixteen artists and two paintings from the Ashmolean Museum: The Forest Fire by Piero di Cosimo and The Exposition of Moses by Nicholas Poussin. The aim was to produce drawings that worked collectively as well as individually. \nThe artists produced drawings which were then assembled to become full-scale representations of the original paintings. The four assembled collaborative representations are made of fifteen individually drawn sections. Each artist produced their drawings to scale using a variety of drawing and painting media\, with some also working in collage. \nDuring eight months\, over sixty individual project drawings were produced and then assembled into four large drawings representing the original paintings. The finished assembled works are 1:1 representations of the original paintings; two in colour and two in black and white. Some of the artists have also produced additional work referencing the original paintings. \nAt the Ashmolean Museum\, there’s a wonderful opportunity for both families and adults to attend a workshop inspired by the exhibition. Please see below for the dates. \n\nExhibition Opening\nThursday 12 February 6-8pm\nPlease join us for drinks to celebrate the opening of this exhibition\nFree event / no booking required \nMeet the Artists\nMonday 16 February 2-3.30pm & Saturday 28 February 2-3.30pm\nJoin the artists for a tea\, talk and an informal tour of the exhibition\nFree event / Book Tickets \nDrawing workshops at The Ashmolean\nFamily workshop: Thursday 19 February 2-4pm\n£17 for 1 adult & 2 children / Book Tickets \nAdult workshop: Wednesday 4 March 11am – 3pm\n£27 per person / Book Tickets

SUMMARY:What's On Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? - An Oxford Playhouse Production
DESCRIPTION:An Oxford Playhouse Production\n\nBy Edward Albee \nDirected by Mike Tweddle \nOne evening. Two couples. No place to hide. \nWelcome to the small hours at George and Martha’s – the alcohol is flowing\, the gloves are off\, and the games are just getting started. \nEdward Albee’s multi award-winning play Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? is a wild\, gripping and darkly funny exploration of the lies we tell to protect ourselves. \nDisillusioned university professor George and his wife Martha invite an unwitting younger couple\, Nick and Honey\, into their home. It’s not long before things spiral\, dragging everyone into the heart of a tempestuous relationship. What starts as a spur of the moment nightcap turns into psychological show down. \nEdward Albee’s masterpiece of raw intensity and searing insight is directed by Oxford Playhouse Artistic Director Mike Tweddle. Don’t miss one of the most explosive nights in modern theatre. \n\nAge\n14+\nDuration\n3hrs 15mins\nInterval\nYes (performance includes two intervals)\nWarning\nContains strong language\, violence and adult themes\nVenue\nOxford Playhouse\nAdditional Information\nArtwork by Patryk Hardziej

SUMMARY:Song of Myself (Display)
DESCRIPTION:Song of Myself\, 1995\, Tom Phillips RA (1937–2022)\, wire\, 360 x 180 cm.\nCredit: Estate of Tom Phillips CBE RA \nTom Phillips described Song of Myself as “an attempt to list the various identities that go to make a single artistic life”. The work borrows its title from a poem in Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. Its beginning is based on the confessional Anglo-Saxon poem\, The Seafarer\, which Phillips first came across as an undergraduate at St Catherine’s College\, Oxford. \nWithin the work\, the alert reader will find further references\, direct or cryptic\, to Homer\, Plato\, Dante\, Cervantes\, Shakespeare\, Marvell\, Conrad\, R. L. Stevenson; to the music of Wagner and Robert Schumann; and to the films of Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles. The text is littered with echoes of Phillips’s own artistic preoccupations: as a painter\, calligrapher\, user of stencils and maker of books. \nPhillips first made a pencil drawing of the text\, then worked with the fabricator Leo Verryt to realise the work in wire\, as a hanging poem. Other versions of the text exist\, one in a series of paintings called Curriculum Vitae (No XX\, 1992)\, and another in Self Portrait in Silver (2004). Phillips writes: “The unity of the piece in which letters are tortured into cooperation hopes to reflect an overall homogeneity in the spirit of its maker”. \nThe Bodleian Libraries also has the Tom Phillips archive in our collection.

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

SUMMARY:Lubomyr Melnyk live in Oxford - First Return Series
DESCRIPTION:Lubomyr Melnyk – live in Oxford – First Return Series\n  \nWhere: The New Space (in Gradel Quad\, New College)\, Oxford\, OX13TE \nWhen: Monday 23rd February 2026 – Tuesday 24th February 2026 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Balliol College Music Society (BCMS) brings you another recital from the world-class Ukrainian pianist Lubomyr Melnyk\, in the New Space of New College\, as he returns to Oxford for an highly anticipated return series. Filling the Barbican in 2023\, and packing venues in the Colleges Balliol\, Magdalen and Wadham in November 2025\, Lubomyr looks forward to sharing continuous music with you all\, dear friends\, this February 2026 – a November Oxford and Cambridge follow-up series is also on the cards. \nLast November\, the BCMS saw\, for the first time\, academics in tears\, and we were moved by the fantastically warm reception and to see just how touched many of our attendees were by Lubomyr’s music. We are extremely excited to announce that this return will be complemented by the activities of the professional film-maker Rupert Clague\, who has been making a documentary about Lubomyr over the last 5 years – executive producer\, Werner Herzog! – and by the research interests of Oliver Durcan\, a PhD candidate at Goldsmiths\, University of London and founder of Creative Empirical. The BCMS will be working with Durcan and others going forward to better understand the wealth of anecdotal claims made about Lubomyr’s neurophysical technique and the extraordinary experiences of a certain percentage of audience members. \nOne of the most remarkable pianists of our time\, Lubomyr creates music which is immersive and transporting. As he channels phenomenal energies and speeds in unbroken yet dynamic pieces\, the typical audience is thunderstruck by his stamina and is swept up in the glistening polyphony\, perhaps not realising that\, for him\, the playing is joyful and as easy as breathing: there is no real question of ‘stamina’. Often described as transcendental\, Lubomyr prefers to think of (the more recent incarnations of) his music instead as the: “operatic voice for the piano\,” as his great calmness allows him to maintain a multitude of songs over and under the flow of the piece\, a calm which extends to an incredible feeling of freedom: the open-minded listener is able to join him in the eye of the storm. That calmness is even found notable when his students give amateur performances. \nWhat was initially an attempt to bring the burgeoning minimalist\, ambient sound and the Indian classical virtuosity to the Western classical tradition soon became an entirely new genre and world of sound\, when Lubomyr left the Canadian conservatoires in the early ’70s to work in Paris. Lubomyr’s pioneering “continuous music” is both a new physical and mental technique\, orthogonal to those of the classical traditions\, and a philosophy of piano music and performance. His incredible creates a sound which is tangible\, often sounding like three or four pianos at once\, or not like a piano at all. His range of touches – from the impossible liquidity to the raw hurricane in “Windmills”\, his greatest piece – is made possible only by his mental state\, and he attributes the spiritual force of his playing to his Ukrainian heritage. \nThe organiser\, Nathan Adlam\, and Lubomyr extend their thanks to the Warden\, Fellows and Porters of New College for the venue; to all at Balliol College for their continuing support of both Lubomyr and the musical society; to Dr Emilie Capulet\, Dr Juan Gonzalez\, Dr Alexander Binns\, Dr Sung Hee Kim\, Dr Anna Zerio\, the Revd Dr Laura Biron-Scott\, Professor Kate Crosby\, Professor Thomas Melham\, Louisa Denby\, Dasha Nepochatova\, Sylvia Temple\, Alexander Russell\, Oliver Durcan\, Rupert Clague\, Sean Qualter\, Peter Tsakov and countless others for their particular interest and support of this series; and to the Oxford University Ukrainian Society for their endless spirit and the undeniable community buzz they bring to our events. We also thank any and all who attended our last concert series with Lubomyr\, and those who joined in the ‘fireside chats’\, making last November so special and leaving Lubomyr feeling very welcome in Oxford.
