THE WOMEN’S ART COLLECTION MAKING WAVES

A new exhibition held in Murray Edwards College explores the influence of water on women artists, both as subject matter and artistic medium. Featuring works from 17 artists between the 1920s and present day, Women and Water examines the many forms and guises the element can take – a source of pleasure, place of refuge or symbol of renewal and the passage of time. The display has been curated in partnership with The Ingram Collection – one of the UK’s most significant publicly accessible selections of modern and contemporary British art – and draws inspiration from the iconic sunken Fountain Court at the heart of the college. Expect pieces from Eileen Cooper, Laura Knight, Tracey Emin, Elisabeth Frink and more, including new work from Phoebe Boswell. Showing until 25 February, it’s free to visit and open daily from 10am to 6pm.
