The motivation behind this catalogue and the exhibition it accompanies is to generate a rallying point or focus for the celebration of a reunion. This reunion can also serve to commemorate the first years of the School of Art of the Alexander Mackie College of Advanced Education, Sydney. It is not so much the institution itself being celebrated, though due credit must be given its central role - but rather the community of interests that grew out of it or, in some cases, in spite of it. Its About Time did not set out to be a comprehensive document of late 1970s art school but rather a wide ranging reminiscence that sought to be inclusive instead of exclusive.
