Jonathan Griffith Retrospective
A beautiful exhibition at Unity Theatre in Liverpool by Jonathan Griffith, an 81 year old self-taught artist. He developed his painting skills in his spare time, over many years, and this retrospective charts his work over time as his style has evolved and he has gradually lost movement.
Audio description is available at the Unity Theatre.
1 Nov – 8 Dec, Unity Theatre, Liverpool, L1 9BG

Spellbound
With some brilliant reviews to back it up (The Times called it “mesmerising” while The Telegraph went with “irresistibly creepy”), SPELLBOUND dives deep into the history of magic over eight centuries in an immersive and thought-provoking exhibition.
The exhibition asks us to examine our own beliefs and rituals, and aims to show how, even in this skeptical age, we still use magical thinking and why we might need a bit of magic in our lives.
On now until 6 Jan, Ashmolean Museum, OX1 2PH
First Amongst Equals
Remarkable women who have shaped contemporary British society choose objects that speak to them from the Museum’s displays.
With 300 years of social history to choose from, the selections are a brilliant way to see objects new and old from a completely different perspective. Reflect on women’s ongoing struggle for equality whilst reveling in the achievements of the brilliant women starting the discussions.
On now until 13 Jan, The Foundling Museum, London. WC1N 1AZ
Impressionism: The Art of Life
Showcased is a rare combination of French Impressionist paintings and sculptures, spanning from the early 1860s to the beginning of the First World War. The exhibition will display works by world-renowned artists such as Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas and Pierre-Auguste Renoir, all of whom exhibited artwork in the very first Impressionist group exhibition in France.
Paintings and sculptures will span four key themes related to everyday occurrences: maternity, leisure, work and the home.
