    Studio International magazine: Tales from Peter Townsend’s editorial papers 1965-1975 Joanna Melvin 49015858 2013 Declaration of authorship I, Joanna Melvin certify that the worK presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this is indicated in the thesis. i Tales from Studio International Magazine: Peter Townsend’s editorial papers, 1965-1975 When Peter Townsend was appointed editor of Studio International in November 1965 it was the longest running British art magazine, founded 1893 as The Studio by Charles Holme with editor Gleeson White. Townsend’s predecessor, GS Whittet adopted the additional International in 1964, devised to stimulate advertising. The change facilitated Townsend’s reinvention of the radical policies of its founder as a magazine for artists with an international outlooK. His decision to appoint an International Advisory Committee as well as a London based Advisory Board show this commitment. Townsend’s editorial in January 1966 declares the magazine’s aim, ‘not to ape’ its ancestor, but ‘rediscover its liveliness.’ He emphasised magazine’s geographical position, poised between Europe and the US, susceptible to the influences of both and wholly committed to neither, it would be alert to what the artists themselves wanted. Townsend’s policy pioneered the magazine’s presentation of new experimental practices and art-for-the-page as well as the magazine as an alternative exhibition site and specially designed artist’s covers. The thesis gives centre stage to a British perspective on international and transatlantic dialogues from 1965-1975, presenting case studies to show the importance of the magazine’s influence achieved through Townsend’s policy of devolving responsibility to artists and Key assistant editors, Charles Harrison, John McEwen, and contributing editor Barbara Reise.

  • 'Seth Price's Operations' by Michael Newman, From
    “Here is an operation . ” Seth Price, Was ist los? The walls of several of Seth Price’s exhibitions since 2007 have featured kite- shaped panels in what appears to be a yellow metal—“gold keys,” as the artist likes to call them—with an embossed area in black, white, or various colors, somewhat resembling a leaping figure, which in each picks out the negative shape of a hand dropping keys into another hand. These may be placed high, and are sometimes grouped to form horizontal or vertical friezes.1 The image of passing keys is an everyday gesture raised to the power of a logo, representing an interaction, which may be an exchange, the outcome of a sale or a mort- gage, the loan of a car or an apartment—intimating security, freedom, a place of one’s own. A key also has the metaphorical significance of something that unlocks and opens, lays bare, suggesting the process of interpretation that is applied to the work of art, or a body of work. But is there any meaning, any- thing hidden that needs unlocking? In much contemporary art and culture, the intensive concept of a “deep” meaning has been replaced by the extensive con- cept of networks, nodes that link to other nodes in all directions. The images in the “diamonds” come from tiny GIFs downloaded from the Internet, so the origin is a digital file obtained through a link. In the way that he explores different articulations across various mediums between source, object, and redistribution, Price has developed in an exem- plary manner the experience of an artist born in 1973, and based in New York.

  • Conceptual Art in Britain 1964–1979 the New Art Large Print Guide
    Conceptual Art in Britain 1964–1979 12 April – 29 August 2016 The New Art Large Print Guide Please return to exhibition entrance The New Art 1 From 1969 several exhibitions in London and abroad presented conceptual art to wider public view. When Attitudes Become Form at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in 1969 or Seven Exhibitions at the Tate Gallery in 1972, for example, generated an institutional acceptance and confirmation for conceptual art. It was presented in such exhibitions in different contexts to encompass both an analytical or theoretical conceptual art largely based in language and philosophy, and one that was more inclusive and suggested an expansion of definitions of sculpture. This inclusive view of conceptual art underlines how it was understood as a set of strategies for formulating new approaches to art. One such approach was the increasing use of photography – first as a means of documentation and then recast and conceived as the work itself. Photography also provided a way for sculpture to free itself from objects and re-engage with reality. However, by the mid-1970s some artists were questioning not just the nature of art, but were using conceptual strategies to address what art’s function might be in terms of a social or political purpose. 2 1st Room Wall labels Clockwise from right of wall text John Hilliard born 1945 Camera Recording its Own Condition (7 Apertures, 10 Speeds, 2 Mirrors) 1971 70 photographs, gelatin silver print on paper on card on Perspex Here, Hilliard’s Praktica camera is both subject and object of the work.

  • Maria Eichhorn’S Aktiengesellschaft, Installed at the Van Abbemuseum Since June, 2007
    The Free! Copyist new #1: “Value” Play Van Abbe About n The 18-month programme Play Van Abbe at the Van Abbe- museum consists of exhibitions, projects, performances, lec- tures and discussions, taking the collection of the Van Abbe- museum as a starting point. Play Van Abbe is subdivided into four parts, each with its own theme. Part 1, The Game and the Players, began in November 2009 and ran until March 2010. In this first part the museum focuses on the stories of artists and exhibition makers. Who are these “players” within a museum and which stories do they tell? How was the collection presented in 1983 and how is this perceived in 2010? How does the current director present the collection? In what way does an art museum position itself – both in the present and in the past? These questions were put up for discussion in The Game and the Players in three exhibitions: Repetition: Summer Display 1983, Strange and Close and Rien ne va plus. Part 1 of Play Van Abbe closed in March 2010 with the project, If I Can’t Dance… Edition III – The second part of Play Van Abbe, called Time Machines, opens in April 2010 and will be on view until the end of Au- gust 2010. This chapter investigates museum models from the past, asking: how does the museum use presentation tech- niques to tell a story and what are the hidden assumptions? Time Machines includes the exhibitions, Museum Modules and In-between Minimalisms (10/04 - 12/09/2010), as well as To the Margin and Back (10/04 - 16/08/2010).
