| Description | The State Welfare Project consisted of four members from backgrounds including Fine Art and Social Sciences, a collaborative work opening debates concerning issues of British Welfare Policy. The artists were Simon Drury (then based in Hull and working with a photographic archive), Gillian Dyson, Tim Brennan and Garry Craig (postgraduate course in social sciences at Southampton). A series of installations were produced in different locations, including an egg processing factory in Hull, a Victorian School in Glasgow, and a site originally a prison. This included text and images being placed in the installation.
This includes 4 files of photographs and texts relating to the installations, a letter from Tim Brennan to Stefan Scczelkun explaining the project and asking if he would be interested in publishing it in the Working Press, books by and about working class artists, 1986-1996, and a letter from the Artists Newsletter publications to Tim Brennan relating to how to handle the article
