The Vanished Reality

The Modern Art Oxford Gallery celebrates its 50 years in existence with nine artists, including European big names Marcel Broodthaers and Hans Hacke, exploring the relationship between the production of artwork and the social conditions in which it is created.

Masters of Japanese Photography

Timeless beauty and urban bad conditions are the twin poles of post-Second World War Japanese photography.
