Ashmolean Now: Flora Yukhnovich x Daniel Crews-Chubb
July 19, 2023
The Ashmolean, Oxford has launched a new exhibition series of contemporary art: Ashmolean Now.

The concept of this exciting series is to invite contemporary artists to create new work inspired by the museum’s historical collection.⁣

 

The first exhibition, Flora Yukhnovich x Daniel Crews-Chubb is currently in Gallery 8 of the museum.

 

ACS member Flora Yukhnovich has created a series of dramatic paintings which draw upon the museum’s Still-Life Paintings Gallery, 17th and 18th-century Dutch flower paintings. The works also reference archetypal motifs of idealised beauty combined with references to female characters in horror films such as The Witch, Carrie and Raw.⁣

 

Until 14 Jul 2024
Ashmolean Museum, ⁣Beaumont St, Oxford OX1 2PH
