$Talk \u2013 Evelyn Dunbar (British Women Painters Series)$

Thu 6 Jun, 2–3pm
Booking is essential
With Peter Vass, Fellow at Oxford Brookes University
One of a series of three talks on British women painters on Thursdays in May-June 2024
Evelyn Dunbar (1906-1960) is best remembered as the only woman to be given salaried status as a full-time war artist in World War 2.
Dunbar produced several major works now principally held in the Imperial War Museum. However her post-war work, particularly her landscapes, have only recently received the accolades they deserve.
This is the second of three in the Making a Mark series of talks about British women painters. Other talks in this series are:
Winifred Knights - Thu 30 May
Joan Eardley - Thu 13 Jun

Tickets are £8 each, for both the in-person and online talk. https://www.ashmolean.org/event/three-women-painters-talk2-evelyn-dunbar
