Tate Archive continued to develop its holdings across all areas of its remit. Larger acquisitions included the complete archives of Audio Arts magazine, from the magazine's creator, Bill Furlong; the complete archive of Ian Breakwell, generously donated by the artist not long before his death in 2005; and a fine archive of material given by the estate of the painter Prunella Clough.
Among the other artists' papers acquired were our first significant representation of the artist Stanley Hayter and additional material for the archives of Barbara Hepworth, Paule Vezelay and Robin Crozier. Purchased at auction were a fine sketchbook by Stanley Spencer and a series of letters from John Nash to Cicely Marchant of the Goupil Gallery. Commercial galleries were further represented by the gift of the papers of the late Peter Cochrane of Arthur Tooth and Sons; a small quantity of material from the Brook Street Gallery; the papers of Lumley Cazalet Ltd and the Roy Miles Gallery.
Meanwhile we continued to develop our holdings of critics and art historians, including the addition of papers from J.P. Hodin, Klaus Hinrichsen's files about Kurt Schwitters and other émigré artists, and small collections of material relating to Dr A M Hammacher and Roland Wackrill, as well as the administrative papers of the UK branch of the International Association of Art Critics (AICA-UK). A further large deposit of material was received from the Musgrave Kinley Outsider Trust.
