The following artists, and their artworks, were once showcased at exhibitions organised by the previous Sheffield University Fine Art Society (SUFAS).
With its origins in the 1960s, the society flourished throughout the decades and has only recently, in 2012, been brought to an end. Upon its dissolution, the artworks which SUFAS had purchased throughout the years, were gifted to the University of Sheffield’s Heritage Collection where they remain today. Part of my research project was to further understand the widely unknown history of SUFAS as a way of highlighting the impacts it had on the artistic community of the University.
The following paintings have been selected as part of my research within the SUFAS archive.
