OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Sacred Signs: How Jewish, Christian, and Muslim Visual Symbols Draw form the Same Well
This image-rich talk will introduce some of the many examples of how symbols in the visual art of the Abrahamic traditions draw from a pagan vocabulary that precedes all of them as well as from each other; how they converge and diverge across history and geography; and how they continue to appear in the modern and contemporary art of a world that often defines itself to be secular.
