Not much to say this month. Donn Wray still needs speakers for this year. The calendar on
page 10 shows what months we still need speakers for. Pick a topic that you know orsomething you want to learn more about and share it with the club. You only need to speakfor 15-25 minutes and the editor will even help you put together a power point
presentation if you would like.

Please chose a date and reach out to Don at:
donn.wray@skofirm.com
or speak to him at Monday's meeting.

British Museum Holds Old Bailey Note Exhibit
f r om Th e E-Sylu m

Of the many artists who have investigated the intersection of art and value, the work ofJ.S.G. Boggs (1955?2017) is among the wittiest and most audacious. In the mid-1980s, whileliving in the UK as an up-and- coming artist, he began drawing money ? faithful
reproductions of current tender ? that he would then try and spend. Acting transparently,
he offered the receiver two options: they could have a genuine note in payment for apurchase, or they could accept a hand- drawn artwork imitating a note. If they accepted thedrawing, Boggs asked for a receipt and the correct amount in change. The receiver was freeto do what they wanted with their artwork, although on occasion his gallery would trackdown the drawing and offer to buy it back, at an inflated amount. ?It's not as easy as it
sounds', he once said, ?it takes me ten hours to draw one of these things, and then anotherten to spend it'.
The artist attempted to use his so- called ?Boggs bills' to pay for everything, from meals inrestaurants to rent and even his own solicitor when his work, inevitably, landed him in legal
difficulty. In 1986 he wrote to the Bank of England asking it to grant permission for his notedrawings. It refused and applied its prerogative to bring a private prosecution, leading to
the artist's arrest and seizure of several works from an exhibition at Young Unknowns
Gallery in Waterloo.
