Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Winifred Knights (1899-1947) was a highly individual artist who adopted a distinctive style of modernism. She trained at the Slade under Henry Tonks and in 1920 painted, as a scholarship piece, The Deluge. It has come to be recognised as her masterpiece.
In the 1920s and 30s, Knights produced a range of remarkable and original works in the company of her husband, Stephen Monnington. She died in 1947, aged 47. No newspaper published her obituary.
The first of three in the Making a Mark series of talks about British women painters.
Other talks in this series include:
Evelyn Dunbar talk 2 – Thu 6 Jun
Joan Eardley talk 3 – Thu 13 Jun
