His research focuses on the art, media and culture of Wales and other small nations. Abstract Between 1969 and 1976, the Welsh Arts Council organized a groundbreaking exhibition series of called Art and Society which explored how particular themes – war, work, worship and sex – had been interpreted across different media. Combining ‘high’ art with ‘popular’ culture, this series attracted international attention for challenging cultural hierarchies with a broader, sociological definition of ‘art’. Yet it was also criticised for rejecting traditional standards and for the subject its final exhibition, Sex. This article examines Art and Society in its broader historical context. It argues the series illustrates Wales’s overlooked contribution to key cultural debates in post-war Britain. Keywords: Welsh Arts Council; high art; popular culture; cultural policy.

The Council of the Academy wish to acknowledge • with gratitude the great help given by the officers and staff of the National Library in organizing and hanging this exhibition.
