Alternative Oxford is the O3 Gallery’s special summer exhibition for 2008.
Selected local artists will show work on the theme of Alternative Oxford. Non traditional views of the city, either in subject matter or medium, will open up Oxford to the local public and summer visitors to the city. This will be a striking view of the city through the eyes of our artistic community.
This open competition gives artists the chance to submit artwork that contributes to the idea of opening up unseen areas of Oxford, or is an innovative take on a traditional view. Artists have been invited to submit work of any medium. All participants showing work in the exhibition live in the county.
Admission is free to the public and the event will be suitable for all ages. All work will be for sale.
The exhibition will coincide with other related events in Oxfordshire such as Oxford Open Doors 2008, organised by Oxford Preservation Trust in partnership with Oxford University. Oxford Open Doors aims to encourage local people to explore and understand more about – and most of all – enjoy the rich local history of our fascinating city. Over the weekend of the 13th and 14th of September, as part of Heritage Open Days, Oxford’s most interesting cultural venues and heritage institutions will throw open their doors with trails, activities, guided tours and more.
