On International Women's Day in 1985, Catherine Truman, Sue Lorraine and Anne Brennan opened a cooperative jewellers workshop in the stable block of an old mansion in Gray Street, Norwood, in Adelaide (South Australia). Over the ensuing forty years and at five different addresses, Gray Street Workshop has provided workspace and professional support not just to the permanent partners in the workshop, but to more than one hundred artists who worked there as tenants, many of whom have gone on to establish major careers of their own. This publication marks the fortieth anniversary of the establishment of this remarkable institution and acts as a companion for the JamFactory national touring exhibition Beautiful Tensions: Gray Street Workshop celebrates forty years, which features new work by the Workshop's four current permanent partners: Jess Dare, Lisa Furno, Sue Lorraine and Catherine Truman.
