The
Magic Hour and a special offer from Quod
7 August 2008
Sound and visual
artists, scientists and gardeners have been collaborating
at the University
of Oxford's Botanic Garden. The goal is to explore each
other's worlds and the subject of dusk and twilight (a time
of day called "the magic hour" by photographers). These explorations,
assisted by community groups and schools around Oxford, are
inspiring new works of art and compositions which examine
and celebrate the natural world..
The
Magic Hour culminates in a three night event from
4-6 September when visitors will be able to explore the Garden
at dusk. Come and enjoy an experience of sounds, sights and
impromptu performances by the new sonic inhabitants.
A collaboration between the Garden and Oxford
Contemporary Music, Oxford Inspires is
proud to launch our Planet Earth Season with The
Magic Hour. Tickets are £5 each and the performance
begins at 7.00pm. For bookings, please call 01865 305 305
or visit www.ocmevents.org.
Pop in to Quod
on The High just a few minutes stroll from The Botanical Gardens.
Show your Magic Hour ticket to receive a complimentary
glass of wine with your supper. Offer available Thursday 4th
- Saturday 6th September. We would love to see you for an
early supper or after the event.
