From the Sublime to the.... .....for ever & ever right?

Picture No. 1  The Shabaka Stone  a post Ramesses relic from the 25th Dynasty of Egypt.  A  black basalt slab 137cm x 66cm x  25cm : weight  5 cwt : it is incised  with the remaining hieroglyphs of a worm-ridden, decaying papyrus. This papyrus was found as pharaoh Shabaka 716 - 698 BC was inspecting the temple of Ptah in Memphis, Egypt. The Pharaoh Shabaka, concerned about the loss of the information on the papyrus, had the rest of the text written into this stone. A part of the inscription tells of the stones importance and how it will remain on its chosen site forever as a symbol of Pharoah Shabaka's importance. In later years, the stone was used by people from another civilisation who occupied the land, as a millstone. The Shabaka Stone is also noteworthy in that it places Ptah as the center of existence and as the creator god.

Picture No. 2  The Belgium bank note became a secret form for message communications in the English Art Schools of the 1960-90's.

Picture No. 3  The Accrington Stoneware Bottle  measures 28cm x 15cm : weight 2250g : made in Chesterfield for Stanton's Soft Drinks Co Accrington as a returnable Pop bottle. It bears a rather stern warning. The passing of time it seems has not diminished the futility of its message.
 
Picture No. 4  The Roman Kettle in Stainless Steel  measures 18cm across the base and is 19cm to highest pip. Roman Design kettle c 500 BC. Turns out that stainless steel was invented by Harry Brearley in Sheffield on 13th August 1913. Which leaves a bit of a 2,413 year hole to fill wi this one our Mycroft - must be an outrageous lie then eh? It do work rather well though for all that. The British Museum, Towneley Galleries, have three o these.  
 
Picture No. 5  The Burnley Steel Street Planters  measure 4ft x 3ft.  Made from galvanised sheet steel, planted out and sited in a street adjacent to Burnley central library their location and steel construction echo earlier forms, which were made from stacks of re-assembled sawn through car tyres.
 
Picture No. 6  The Round Polyurethane Panel Painting 4ft diameter x 3/4" blockboard : Painted Chelsea School of Art 1970 : became table top/catwalk int Stanza della Tre Finestre 2006.
 
Picture No. 7  The Lucas Centenary Fountain measures 18'x18'x4' : weight 3 tons : Constructed from Red Terrazzo the Centenary Fountain was Presented in 1961 by Joseph Lucas Limited. In 1986 the Fountain was re-sited at the Eastern end of the North Wall the Thompson Centre, Burnley.
The fountain and the Centenary now forgotten, the fountain has been filled with soil and has become East Lancashires largest flower pot-planter.
Joseph Lucas was a major manufacturer in Burnley for over a century. In I986, before massive company changes, Joseph Lucas Ltd employed over 600 in its Burnley factories. The last Old Burnley Lucas factory closed in 2006.         
 
Picture No. 8  The Shelf Portrait  ..by happen chance and order we see thee  5ft 1"x 5ft 1"x 9" Pine & Ply & Polyurethane & Objects Visiting Various : Created Liverpool College of Art : April 1967 and Still hanging on.  Well.  A Painting Automatic (but one had to be there some of the time at least) born out of Notions Mysterious about Self and a Curiosity about Making The New.  Happy to Soldier on in the West Wing ot CakCave at CakCanavril Cakanology Stanza della Tre Finestre Burnley Beach near Colne.    
 
Picture No. 9  The Wellfield Church School Bronze Sign : 106cm x 42cm x 2cm Phosphor bronze : designed by Burnley School of Art GAD 2 BTEC OND student Adrian Philips, for his Diploma, final major project, in 1992. The wooden pattern was made by David Belshaw of Haslingden. The sign was cast in Phosphor bronze by ex School of Art student Chris Rushton, MD of Burnley Light Alloys Foundry. The final polish and fix was in 1993, just in time for the opening of a new Wellfield School extension. The excellence of the sign eclipsed only by the generosity of those who unselfishly gave their time and talents and encouragement to the project. Well done you. There is however one small flaw in the design - the Head Teacher, Mr C J Sproson, who's name is quite clearly shown on the cast bronze sign, in letters 3cm high - retired as Head Teacher Wellfield School - in December 2006. Cripes.                
 
Picture No. 10  The Self Portrait  Oil on Linen : 48" x 39"  Might be one to keep in the attic for a bit longer - eh! 1979-82.

Picture No. 12  The flamin' Aluminium Top Hat Crown  of (not sayin') 1st April 2009  Burnley Beach Workshops Luxury dept. Spun aluminium (unpolished) A.T.H.C. and not quite very good cardboard f.s.i.h-c.  Height  8.25 inches / 21 cm and 3.5 inches / 9cm (flamin secret interior half-crown ).  A quite useful waste paper bin joins a rather plain spare Mr bezel from our radio controlled quartz no(0)jewels unadjusted acctim Mk 16 9Qj Model 74137 36119 05/07 Clock number 2(silver) to become a much munch more important Easter time inedibles.
