Southwark's public artworks

Emily Young also sculpted the memorial to the victims of the 7th July 2005 bombings in London. This can be seen at www.ipernity.com/doc/philsutters/48108258

I came across another Henry Moore recently (June 2014) in the forecourt of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford - www.ipernity.com/doc/philsutters/33712881

This was one of my highest scoring photos on Flickr. Nothing has changed but a url - now only one person has found it. I never worked out what the interest was, but I couldn't find other works by Michael Kellaway on the net. So maybe MK kept coming back to cherish his one bit of fame! 16.4.2018 - This piece still remains a mystery. Someone else, on another site, has found another of his works in a totally different medium - collage. It has been established that 144 Southwark Street was, at the time this was installed on its rear wall, an office for British Railways international goods services. That hasn't helped to explain what, if anything, inspired the work, or why it is tucked away on the back of the office block. Michael Kellaway went on to be a lecturer in the arts.

Art on the Cart was an initiative of the Southwark Council Arts Team to make art reach into every corner of the borough. Eight refuse trucks, dustcarts, in UK parlance, had vinyl cladding whose designs were based on artworks with a connection to the Borough of Southwark. The Southwark Council website used to say the following about the artwork: "Peter Snow attended Goldsmiths College and Slade School of Fine Art before teaching at Slade. He has also been a journalist for South London Press. A painter and stage designer, he has also made prints in various media, as well as a series of drawings and abstract works. Snow’s most productive period was in the 1970s and 1980s and over the years he has exhibited widely in London. Until recently he lived in Kennington. The image on the cart is a painting called Argon, which is oil on panel and was completed around 1970. "
