Art historian Tina Barton places the event within the history of post-object art in New Zealand, a movement that "extended sculpture into temporary, multi-part, mixed-media, largely ephemeral situations".

Designed to "address the lack of support and increase exposure for sculptors", the project was initiated by Ian Hunter, an Irish-born artist and gallery professional who lived in New Zealand between 1970 and 1984.

In an account of New Zealand performance art between 1970 and 1985, art historian Jennifer Hay described F1 as "a major event and unqualified success in building a premise with which future artists could expand", by pooling resources and time. Exhibiting artists included Greer Twiss, Don Driver, Pauline Rhodes, Stuart Griffiths, Jacqueline Fraser, Andrew Drummond, John Cousins, Jack Body, Chris Cree-Brown, Colleen Anstey and Paul Butt. Hay also notes

that the event "provided the opportunity to debate feminist issues in the arts and to address the problem of invisibility for women artists." A two-day seminar was held on women's sculpture and a "discussion of feminist goals" saw the establishment of the National Women Artist's Association. In an article in "Art New Zealand", artist and event co-organiser Barbara Srathdee documented works presented at F1 by women artists including Kate Coolahan, Pauline Rhodes, Jacqueline Fraser, Di Ffrench, Mary Louise Brown, Colleen Anstey, and Vivian Lynn, and visiting Irish artist Rose Ann McCreery and Canadian artist Evelyn Roth

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser Richard Fraser of Touchfraser Sir Richard Fraser was a Scottish noble of the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries. He succeeded to the lands of Touchfraser (or Tulchfraser) in Stirlingshire upon the death of his grandfather, Sir Gilbert Fraser (d. c 1263). Life. The son of John Fraser of Touchfraser and Alicia de Conigburg, Sir Richard Fraser first appears in the records when he served as a witness to the resignation of Pencaitland in East Lothian from John de Pencaitland to Herbert de Maxwell in 1276 at which time he is recorded as having the rank of "miles" (knight). In

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

1289, he, along with his cousin Sir Simon Fraser, Sir John de Lindesay, and several monks and clergy, was sent to Carham on Tweed to a court hearing ordered by England’s King Edward I. At issue was the justice of a claim made by a merchant of Gascony that King Alexander III of Scotland had died greatly indebted to him. In the interregnum following the death of Margaret, Maid of Norway, in 1290, Sir Richard, like all Frasers of the period, supported John Balliol. On 8 July 1291 Sir Richard swore fealty to Edward I, who appointed him one

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

of the auditors of the pleadings presented by the various competitors to the Scottish crown, which was ultimately awarded to Balliol. The following year on two occasions, Sir Richard was among the witnesses when Balliol paid homage to Edward: the first at Norham on 20 November 1292, and the second at Newcastle upon Tyne on 26 December. At about the same time, on 14 November, Edward granted Sir Richard the wardship of the lands of the late Richard de Glen in Peeblesshire, including the "maritagium", that is, the right to determine the marriage of the heir, Richard, son of Duncan

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

de Glen. For this privilege, Fraser paid 100 merks in four installments of 25 each. Balliol appointed Fraser "vicecomes" (sheriff) of Berwick in 1293. In 1296, when Balliol and Edward quarreled over the status of William Thorold, an English malefactor who had fled to Scotland. In negotiations with his English counterpart, the sheriff of Northumberland, Sir Richard dissembled, saying he could not rightly judge the matter as he had not held his office long enough to know what Balliol would have him do. As a consequence, Edward stripped Richard of his lands in Peeblesshire. Though Sir Richard was reportedly taken

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

prisoner when Edward besieged Berwick Castle on Good Friday, his lands were restored when he submitted to Edward on 3 September. At Berwick, on 28 August 1296, Sir Richard swore an oath of loyalty to Edward I for his lands in Stirlingshire and Dumfriesshire. He is not believed to have been one of the Scots carried to England after the Battle of Dunbar, for, while the captive barons were forced to serve Edward in his war with France in May 1297, Fraser, by contrast, was sent an invitation to serve. He then stood as surety for his cousin, Sir Simon

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

Fraser, one of the captive Scots, when the two were at Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland on 28 May. It is unclear whether Sir Richard actually took part in the expedition, because on 26 September he was among the barons summoned to assist Bryan Fitzallan against William Wallace. In 1306, he apparently fought for Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Methven, for it is known that various English soldiers sought possession of lands confiscated from him in the aftermath. Specifically, John de Luc asked for the lands of Tulchfraser in Stirling; John de Bristow requested lands in Dumfries; and Alexander

Richard Fraser of Touchfraser

de Balliol also put in a request. The last mention of Sir Richard in the historical record is in 1307 when he communicated with Edward I to recover expenses for his guardianship of Richard de Glen, the son of Duncan de Glen. However, Edward refused his request, calling him a rebel. It is not known whether Fraser married or when and where he died. His seal bore on a triangular shield six rosettes or cinquefoils 3, 2, and 1. Descendants. He is thought to have had one son, Andrew Fraser (d. ante 1297). His grandsons were Sir Alexander Fraser (d.

1332), who inherited Richard’s lands of Touchfraser and from whom came the Frasers of Philorth, Lords Saltoun; Sir Simon Fraser (d. 1333), from whom came the Frasers of Lovat, Lords Lovat; Sir Andrew Fraser (d. 1333); and Sir James Fraser, 1st of Frendraught (d. 1333). Legacy. Alexander Fraser, 18th (traditionally 17th) Baron Saltoun, lamented in 1879 that Sir Richard Fraser had not been given “the very high rank in the family that the account of his career, meagre as the record may be, shows him to have held.” Richard Fraser of Touchfraser Sir Richard Fraser was a Scottish noble

he quickly descends when he finds a menacing giant at the top who threatens to eat him upon smelling him. Jack's mother decides to ascend herself after berating Jack for not bathing enough, only to be eaten herself. Undeterred, Jack decides to bathe, and then climbs up and collects the leaves after seeing the giant unable to detect him. In town, the prince lays out the short stepsister's shoe for different women to try on, but the shoe is too big to fit anyone. When the short stepsister tries it on, the prince is horrified to see that

it fits her and attempts to get out of marrying her. However, the short stepsister reminds him of the vow he had made; and the prince chops off her head in response. When the prince removes the head of the tall stepsister, a heartbroken Cinderella expresses disgust at the prince's penchant for chopping off heads for fun. But the prince, who does not recognize her, orders her head chopped off too and chases her down with his guards to a dead end. By this time, Red's son has fallen asleep while the wide-eyed daughter asks the wolf

about Cinderella's fate. He prepares to give her a sad ending, with Cinderella being cornered and near decapitation; but seeing the girl's troubled expression convinces him to have the magic fairy appears to help Cinderella. Cinderella tells the fairy that she is no longer interested in princes and money, but simply wishes to find a decent man. The fairy turns the prince and his guards into frogs and leaves Cinderella in front of her old magic shop, which Jack bought and made into a jam shop, having named it after her. The two later marry and have two

children, living happily ever after. With both children now asleep, the wolf has a change of heart and decides not to exact revenge. Red returns home from her outing to find her sleeping children on the couch, along with Miss Hunt's book of fairy tales. She is then shocked to discover the wolf, who she recognizes from their earlier encounter; but the wolf simply wishes her good night and departs.
