Modern Art Oxford is staging an evening of short film and video work, to run in parallel with the exhibition Graham Sutherland: An Unfinished World. The exhibition comprises over 80 works on paper that focus on Sutherlands Pembrokeshire landscapes and works created during his time as an official WWII artist.
