The North Wall, Turrill Sculpture Garden, and Sarah Wiseman Gallery are collaborating once again to bring you an evening of exhibition viewings and wine tastings. The experts at Grape Minds will present two different wines to taste in each gallery, Art-K will run an interactive art-making session, White Coco will be open for late night shopping and there will be coffee and Indian food at The Meet Point.
Each venue will conduct a guided tour – starting at Turrill Sculpture Garden at 5:45, then the North Wall at 6:15, then Sarah Wiseman Gallery at 6:45. Can’t make the tour times? Not to worry – guests are still welcome to make their own way round if they wish.
The Exhibitions
The North Wall will present a retrospective of the work of Marjorie Collins; paintings Marjorie has completed since moving to Oxford from Chicago in 1975 until 2025. Although Marjorie started out painting people and places, she is better known for her colourful contemporary watercolours of still lifes and florals often painting objects larger than life.
Turrill Sculpture Garden is celebrating their 25 year Silver Anniversary. Their show this Art Weeks features silver metal sculpture in many forms by several very talented sculptors, all set in a peaceful leafy setting.
Sarah Wiseman Gallery are pleased to present Glitch, a solo show by printmaker Ade Adesina. Growing up in Nigeria and then moving to Aberdeen, Ade’s works are imaginary compositions of the juxtaposing landscapes. Heavy machinery sits to among safari wildlife, clouds often found suspended from metal chains in a bleak sky, baobab trees dominate man-made cityscapes. Visually striking and complex, Ade’s black & white imagery tells the story of his fascination with the world’s turbulent environment.
