Ashmolean NOW Daniel Crews Chubb x Flora Yukhnovich /anglais

This book accompanies the Ashmolean’s first exhibition of its new Ashmolean NOW series, featuring the work of painters Flora Yukhnovich and Daniel Crews-Chubb, which will in part be inspired by the Museum’s historic collections. The book will coincide with the first Ashmolean NOW exhibition in Gallery 8, opening in July 2023. The Ashmolean NOW Program features exciting works by prominent early to mid-career artists based in the UK, seeking to attract new audiences interested in contemporary art. Artists who have established international reputations and emerging artists whose international status is anticipated with a strong degree of confidence are approached pro-actively. In addition to exhibiting their existing works, all artists are invited to create at least one new work as a response to the museum and/or its collections. This first exhibition presents two linked solo shows: paintings/drawings by Flora Yukhnovich, and paintings/drawings by Daniel Crews-Chubb. The double-sided style of the book will mirror the exhibition concept, while presenting itself as a unique, well designed object that has a life beyond the exhibition.
