Gallery parks up for castle pitstop

3:00pm Saturday 5th May 2012 in Oxford By Rhianne Pope

IMAGES from around the country and our city are on display at Oxford Castle this month – in a rather unusual location.

The Caravan Gallery from Portsmouth has parked itself at the castle and people are invited to go inside to view images taken on its journeys across the UK.

Artists Jan Williams and Chris Teasdale are also taking over the O3 Galley with pictures taken from the nooks and crannies of Oxford.

Ms Williams said: “We want people to come along and join in with the exhibitions, it’s going to be a wonderfully anarchic celebration of Oxford.

“As well as our own photos, we have a big map of Oxford which we would like people to come and write their memories, their favourite things, where they had their first snog, anything like that on.

“That will then become a piece of artwork in itself.”

The Caravan Gallery will be outside the O3 Gallery until May 12 and the exhibition in the O3 Gallery runs until May 27. It forms part of Oxfordshire Artweeks.
