Who is Diane, (except of course a MFA in Creative Writing at the University of Auckland)? She has no lanyard, she's not wearing a Festival t-shirt, nor an Art Gallery t-shirt, but rather a loose white cotton shirt which I later look for and find on google images described as a \"New Sexy Classic Womens Boyfriend Wind White Shirt Loose Long Sleeve\".\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBehind Diane, on the stage, the unintroduced Senior Curator, New Zealand and Pacific Art Ron Brownson is sitting chatting genially with someone who must be the artist Jim Allen, previously unknown to me, and the subject\/author of a new book called \u003Ci\u003E\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/discover.elgar.govt.nz\/iii\/encore\/record\/C__Rb2931208__S%09%20Jim%20Allen%20%3A%20the%20skin%20of%20years%20%3A%20interviews%20with%20Jim%20Allen%20Lw%3D%3D%20by%20Phil%20Dadson%20and%20Tony%20Green.__Orightresult__U__X4?lang=eng\u0026amp;suite=def\"\u003EJim Allen: The Skin of Years\u003C\/a\u003E.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/i\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDiane gets back down and Ron raises his mike, looks at us, smiles, pauses, and premises, \"Looking through \u003Ci\u003EThe skin of years, \u003C\/i\u003EI realised it's \u003Cu\u003Eimpossible\u003C\/u\u003E to cover it in 40 minutes.\"\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI'll just insert my own premise here.

That last query was a lead-in to the story of how it all began: how Allen, after serving in World War II (making him now over 90) found himself in Italy, where the British Army, bless their hearts, ran courses for their soldiers, including art courses. Allen did a one-month course in clay sculpture which was held in the 16th century Medici Stables, just outside of Florence. \"They were all marble,\" he says. \"We had a stable for two.\"\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn 1948 he received a government scholarship to attend the Royal College of Art in England.

It was designed by John Scott, with windows by Jim Allen that cast shimmering patterns of coloured light on the walls, which in the course of the day move across a large scale, magnificent mahogany Christ figure, also Allen's work. This \"very emotional, very passionate work\", to use Ron's words, was missing for 12 years, stolen, but happily it was recovered and reinstated in the chapel. Allen remembers, though, not being happy with the fact that \"a local person\" had thought it would be a good idea to oil it until it was almost black.
