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
Join Chantal Meza and renowned art critic and journalist Will Gompertz as they discuss the meaning behind her latest exhibition and the possibilities for art when facing atrocity and the disappearance of worlds. The launch will be officially opened by the Master of Pembroke College, The Rt Hon Sir Ernest Ryder.
The Disappearance of Worlds exhibition will showcase the work of Mexican painter Chantal Meza, whose work for the past decade has confronted the violence, terror, and the complexities of disappearance in both a human and ecological context. Complementing the exhibition will be a series of public talks from world-leading authorities exploring the multiple ways disappearance occurs and the possibilities for response.
The programme is led by the Pembroke College JCR Art Collection; Pembroke College, University of Oxford; The FOUND Project; the Centre for the Study of Violence at the University of Bath; and the Oxford Festival of the Arts, in partnership with other supporting global partners and institutions.
