Two Days At Oxford
Friday 15th January - Saturday 27th February 2016: Oxford-based artist John Goto turns his attention to the city’s turbulent past in his latest exhibition. Prompted by John Betjeman’s stereotyped view of town and gown in An Oxford University Chest (1938), Goto offers a divergent account of the locale and its people during the nineteen-thirties, in his series of photo-digital artworks. Open: 10am-5pm. Entry: All exhibitions are free to visit.

As a powerful deity of good fortune, Ganesha is invoked at the beginning of any endeavour. This display presents diverse representations of Ganesha from the Museum’s collection. Time: 10am - 5pm.

This Ganesha exhibition is one I will have to see in regards to my India project! I am gutted I couldnt make it to London for the Textiles of India exhibition at the V&A because that would have been amazing for my project!

Robert Strange: Collecting Art
Tuesday 12th January 2016 - Sunday 21st February 2016: During childhood Robert Strange kept scrapbooks and diaries of thoughts, aspirations and images which led to a fascination with collecting objects from these experiences. From dice to plastic cracker toys, this playful and colourful exhibition features detailed drawings alongside paintings, prints and photographs of everyday familiar items that we regularly use and throw-away. The exhibition will also feature displays of the found objects; showing where the practice of collector and artist combine. Meet the artist and get closer to the exhibition through talks and interactive activities on Saturday 30 January, plus half-term activities for children. Please see our website for more details.
