Comment

The first Loot Exhibition took place at the Goldsmiths Hall in Foster Lane, London
from the 24th June 1975 to the 12 July 1975. It was the first in a series of Loot
exhibitions organised under the directorship of Graham Hughes. They were designed to
fulfil a perceived need, providing a commercial forum for the increasing number of
small independent studio jewellers who were emerging onto the British scene.....

... this travelling exhibition organised by the Scottish Arts Council and the Crafts
Advisory Committee was a stimulating and provocative show....
