Art at Trinity Hall
‘Encounters in Stone’
This year-long exhibition sees Trinity Hall host monumental sculptures and small-scale pieces throughout the courts and gardens. Artist Stephen Cox RA blends a deep knowledge of the stones from Italy, Egypt and India, as well as the beliefs, myths, and customs they historically manifest, with his own aesthetic as a contemporary sculptor.
The exhibition is free to visit. It is open to the public during the College’s opening hours. The exhibition is open from August 2022 to June 2023.
Portraits in Trinity Hall
An informal guide to portraits in Trinity Hall
Whether the architecture explains it or not, each Cambridge college has a curious kind of personality. ‘Hall men and women’ know – though they rarely make that knowledge explicit – that ‘their college’ is the best and ‘the nicest’. It is ‘cosy’, friendly, unpretentious and, in some mysterious way, welcoming.
I welcome the reader to this guided tour of those who lived and worked here before our time and hope that both Trinity Hall members and visitors will find it entertaining to get to know the portraits and the persons whose faces stare at them from the walls.
