Acknowledgements

In concluding this account, I would like to acknowledge the work of my colleagues who over the years included: Ivor Weeks, David Harding, John Hall, Sally Morgan, Steve Hoare, Bruce Kent, John Gridley, Rose Garrard, Sheila Clayton, Pen Dalton (a regular part timer), and from the earlier years, Harrison Dix, Graham Green and Karen Watts. Frequent visiting staff also included Kate Walker and Flick Allen. I would also like to thank our support staff, especially Gail Lloyd, a well loved Department Secretary. Thanks also to Peter Cox who created the opening and then let us get on with it. Then, from our Bristol years, I would like to thank Ian Biggs for making it possible, then (again) Sally Morgan (with whom I swapped places, when she became Award Leader and subsequently Field Leader in Fine Arts), also Nicholas Lowe, and our frequent visiting staff, Deborah Jones, Sadie Spikes, Alan Boldon, Annie Menter, Annie Lovejoy and Jeanette McSkimming. Also to be mentioned is Jane Calow, who began as an external examiner, but joined our team at a later stage. I would also like to acknowledge the contribution of all our colleagues in Fine Art, who became increasingly close professionally as time went on, and some of whom have now taken over the role of running the undergraduate award in Fine Art and Context. Then, I would like to acknowledge the significant contribution of students (Dip HE, degree and postgraduate) over the years, who, through their creative efforts as students and since then as professionals, have put Art and Social Context into action, often in ways we would not have imagined. Lastly I would like to thank our many external examiners who advised and encouraged us, especially: David Warren-Piper, Caroline Tisdall, Rita Donagh, Judith Williamson, Peter Byrne, Katie McLeod, Jill Journeaux, Jane Calow and Esther Salamon.
