Oxford is a beautiful city that has been a source of inspiration for many artists and writers. At the Sarah Wiseman Gallery this September we are celebrating the City with an exhibition about Oxford by artists Alison Pullen, David Atkins and David Rhys Jones. What is unique about this exhibition is that none of these artists live here, we have selected them for their artistic flair and style, inviting them to come to the city and respond to its beauty and energy.

The results are stunning: Alison Pullen explores the interiors of the colleges in her paintings; ‘The Oxford work has created a new dimension in my paintings as the long history of the buildings their use over the years and significance, have added depth to the work. While working I cannot help thinking about who has walked through them, the students and dons who have gone on to become our history makers.'

David Atkins has been painting over the summer capturing the vibrancy and energy of the city enjoying the season. David Rhys Jones has explored the city looking for the quirky and unique in his exclusive collection of Oxford wall ceramics.

Until 25th of September
