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
James Stourton – historian, author and former Chairman of Sotheby’s UK will discuss the UK art market and his new book Rogues and Scholars: Boom and Bust in the London Art Market 1945-2000 (2024). He tells the story of the London art market from the post-war period to the turn of the millennium, introducing us to “a glorious rogues’ gallery of clever amateurs, eccentric scholars, brilliant emigrés, cockney traders and grandees with a flair for the deal”.
