Art at Pembroke
THE JCR ART COLLECTION
-
Pembroke College was the first of the Oxford Colleges to have an art collection owned by its JCR, which is displayed in the Pembroke JCR Art Gallery located at 5 Brewer Street, OX1 1QN.
-
The JCR Art Collection is a focal point of the College and public openings, exclusive exhibitions and speaker events are regularly hosted.
-
The Collection was set up in 1947 by undergraduate Anthony Emery and is now considered one of the best collections of post World War II paintings in the country.
