Much has been said in the press about the loss of works by Emin and Hirst in the recent warehouse fire. Unfortunataley, the damage is much more widespread, with large numbers of works by other significant British artists being lost.

This includes many works by Patrick Heron and Gillian Ayres, both of whom are represented in the University collection. You can see the works that we have in this exhibition in the Virtual Mead system.

In a recent article 'good-old jackboot retro-arborescent' Sphaleotas makes some entirely unfounded claims concerning the 'true identity' of ***collapse contributor Dr Josef K-ondratieff. But anyway, it was damn good at the time, and perhaps if we had carried on the world would be a safer place, as this confession makes clear.
