Venice Art Trip

Ron Freeborn is organising an art trip to Venice from July 25th to August 1st 2010.

3 star B & B, lots of painting, fine wines, food, including night time sketching in St Marks Square to the accompaniment of an orchestra. Lots of tutors and generally a wonderfully artistic experience to be had all round. Sounds like a fantastic trip.

There are only 3 spaces remaining so if you're interested you'll need to act fast. For further details including costs etc. Please contact Ron via Sue Cook (email or phone 01865 464168).

RA Summer Exhibition 2010 - RAW

A bit of info for those interested in this years RA summer Exhibition :)

The Theme

The co-ordinators have agreed that the theme for 2010 will be Raw. They wish to ‘cut to the chase’ and take a look behind the exterior of the pristine; to address the properties of the materials and the working finger prints left in pursuit of curiosity. Raw can be stark, natural, unrefined, honest, bleak, tender and new. “The hope is that we get to peer into an imagination at work; candour beyond disguise”.
The theme will be explored throughout the exhibition; please note, though, that it is not a condition of entry and all submissions will be welcome.

We are hoping to display the talent of artists from Oxfordshire and nearby areas.
I should be delighted if your members would consider submitting their work and supporting the event. Perhaps you would be kind enough to bring this to their
attention and also include the dates in your next programme.

Details and entry forms may be obtained by contacting the organiser, Michael Lowe, mlandjd@tiscali.co.uk 01993 842354. Alternatively you may like to e-mail me at maddy@johnradburn.org.uk. We do hope to hear from you and any colleagues who may be interested.
