SUMMARY:FRENCH ARTIST COMMUNITIES TALK 3: VAN GOGH & GAUGUIN
DESCRIPTION:With Juliet Heslewood\, Author and Art Historian \nThe third 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. \nWhile living in Provence\, Van Gogh heard news of Gauguin’s experience of Brittany. He looked forward to creating a similar kind of colony\, a ‘studio of the south’ and his letters reveal these hopes and the names of those artists in Paris he felt sure would join him in Arles. \nHis brother Theo\, detecting some urgency in his plan\, encouraged Gauguin to join Van Gogh. The two artists lived together for only a few months – often setting off to paint the same views of the town and its surroundings\, as well as neighbours. \nTheir output reveals more of their dissimilarities than any constructive collaboration.  The talk will include much quotation from both men’s letters.

SUMMARY:Daphne Wright: Deep-Rooted Things
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition focuses on sculptures by Irish artist Daphne Wright and has been curated by Ashmolean director\, Xa Sturgis. \nConceived in partnership with the Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin\, the exhibition will feature several new works which consider the tradition of still lifes and respond to the sculptures in our Cast Gallery. \nDaphne Wright works in unfired clay and jesmonite and has long experimented with casting. \nCentral to the exhibition is Sons and Couch\, a life-size sculptural artwork cast in jesmonite of the artist’s sons\, made especially for this show. They have featured in their mother’s moving and personal work since an early age. This sculpture of them as young men was created with their agreement and collaboration.\nAlso on show is her Fridge Still Life\, which has not been on public display previously\, alongside other works by Wright and objects from the Ashmolean’s own collection. \nSeveral works by the artist relate both to the domestic and the Museum itself\, and in doing so continue the exploration of time\, memory and identity. \nTwo key Ashmolean pieces that speak directly to Wright’s work are included in the exhibition: the fragments of a young Hercules defeating the Nemean Lion in plaster and Rachel Ruysch’s intricate painting\, ‘A Forest Floor’ Still Life of Flowers.

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: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
