David Jones, artist and poet (1895-1974) begins his PREFACE TO THE ANATHEMATA :
'I have made a heap of all that I could find.' (1) So wrote Nennius, or whoever composed the introductory matter to Historia Brittonum. He speaks of an 'inward wound' which was caused by the fear that certain things dear to him 'should be like smoke dissipated'. Further, he says, 'not trusting my own learning, which is none at all, but partly from writings and monuments of the ancient inhabitants of Britain, partly from the annals of the Romans and the chronicles of the sacred fathers, Isidore, Hieronymous, Prosper, Eusebius and from the histories of the Scots and Saxons although our enemies . . . I have lispingly put together this . . . about past transactions, that [this material] might not be trodden under foot'. (2)
(1) The actual words are coacervavi omne quod inveni, and occur in Prologue 2 to the Historia.
(2) Quoted from the translation of Prologue 1. See The Works of Gildas and Nennius, J.A.Giles, London 1841.

White With Wire Wheels aka W4 is the Title of a play by Jack Hibberd, first produced in 1967 at Melbourne University and published in Plays (1970, ed. Graeme Blundell). We didn't see that play, nor the poster until now, but early on we knew of and liked its Title.
In the early 1970s your correspondent exhibited several times at Powell Street Gallery, Melbourne. And also did occasional odd jobs there : minding the gallery, re-stretching and rehanging paintings for gallery clients, and before shows repainting the gallery's white hanging wires.
White wires on white walls : With regular repaints, a painterly crust had accumulated, vulnerable to chipping and to re-exposing the dark metal core.
