MY ...
OXFORDSHIRE SCHOOLS' ART EXHIBITION

13 September - 29 September - FREE ADMISSION, Open Mondays

Modern Art Oxford is delighted to present MY… an exhibition of art by pupils from schools across Oxfordshire and their international partners. With more than 1,000 artworks filling all five galleries, the MY… exhibition is the county’s largest ever by children and young people.

Working with sculpture, painting, ceramics, film and photography, the young artists took their inspiration from the MY... theme: My… Tree, My… World, My… Rabbit, My… House, My… Street, My… Window, and from international artists and cultural sites such as Blenheim Palace, Cotswold Wildlife Park, Oxford University Harcourt Arboretum and the Cowley Road in Oxfordshire. Ten artists led residencies in schools across Oxfordshire.

The year-long MY… project has been a creative partnership between Oxfordshire schools and their international partners, Oxfordshire County Council, Arts Council England South East, cultural sites (Blenheim Palace, Oxford University Harcourt Arboretum, Cowley Road and Cotswold Wildlife Park), professional artists and Modern Art Oxford. International partners included: Istanbul, Turkey; Baltimore, USA; Kampala, Uganda and Valetta, Malta.
