Book below \n\nWith Juliet Heslewood\, Author and Art Historian \nThe last in a series of four talks examining four communities of French artists: The Barbizon school\, the Painters of Pont Aven. Van Gogh and Gauguin in Arles\, and The Fauves – the ‘Wild Beasts’ of the Mediterranean. \nJust over a 100 years ago\, St Tropez was a small fishing village on the Mediterranean\, accessible only by boat. The painter Signac\, who loved sailing\, encouraged others to join him there. \nWhen Matisse visited\, he\, like others\, followed Signac’s Pointillist style but on reaching Collioure\, further along the coast\, he pursued his own ideas\, struck by the brilliant sunlight and dared to use colour in a vibrant un-naturalistic way.  He was joined by Derain who painted in a similar style that caused them to be called Fauves – wild beasts. \nTogether with others\, they created a startling view of the coast that was innovative but well represented their unique experience of this popular part of the world. \n \nLe bonheur de vivre\, Henri Matisse\, 1905-1906\, Oil on canvas. In the collection of the Barnes Foundation \n\n  \nThere are 4 talks in this series.

When their quiet life is interrupted by a friendly bear a new chapter begins. But why has the bear chosen them as playfellows? Why is there sadness in his eyes? And who on earth is that rude little man with a ridiculously long beard that they keep bumping into? \nAll questions will be untangled in this new show from the Woods of Widdershins\, using puppets\, storytelling\, original music and a fantastical fairytale forest. \nChildren must be accompanied and adults require their own tickets. \nFor ages 4 to 10 \n“This quietly dazzling show reminds us of the elemental power of storytelling – how it can coax out wonder\, empathy\, and joy with the simplest of tools: a puppet\, a voice\, and a forest made of dreams” (Cor Blimey *****)

SUMMARY:Good Neighbours
DESCRIPTION:Good Neighbours head out on their UK tour in support of their debut album Blue Sky Mentality\, a 14-track burst of euphoric indie pop that smuggles big feelings – grief\, love\, hope\, resilience – into massive choruses and sun-streaked synths. \nWritten across a whirlwind year of long-haul flights\, tour buses\, hotel rooms and emotional highs and lows\, the album captures the tension between distance and belonging – the pull of community\, the need for connection\, and the journey back to yourself. It’s a record that wears its heart loudly and proudly.

Jess can feel herself becoming an emotional wildebeest right when her world (and the whole world\, thanks) demands cool\, collected ultra detached saint-like kindness and understanding. S**t. \nShe goes digging around in her DNA for answers and finds so many beautiful horrors. Witness her effort to become a brand new\, mythical\, mystical ‘coper.’ OR NOT.

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
