Discover 55 years of inspiring art by following our volunteer-curated festive countdown.
Starting 11 December, this Archive Advent has been researched and curated by a dedicated team of Modern Art Oxford volunteers. Acknowledging that the challenges of 2020 are with us all this festive season, the team researched the ways exhibitions and artists from our past can inspire hope and reflection for the times ahead. Each day, hear unique stories inspired by artists who have exhibited over past festive seasons at the gallery, from William Morris and Yoko Ono, to radical art projects of the 60’s.
Follow #ArchiveAdvent from 11 – 25 December on our Instagram and see the story unfold in the online gallery below.
