ART is imitating film at East Oxford’s Ultimate Picture Palace with a series of works about some iconic movies.

Five artworks have gone up in the Jeune Street venue as part of the Oxfordshire Artweeks celebration.

They include drawings of The Wizard of Oz by Jason Brown; a collage of movies like Blue Velvet by James Read; five papier-mache monoliths paying homage to science fiction classic 2001 and a celebration of birds in film.

Cinema owner Becky Hallsmith said: “It is a splendid to use the space for something different.”
