Studio International [ The British Avant Garde ] – May 1971. Volume 181 Number 933.

£55.00

Includes Gilbert & George’s, There Were Two Young Men from Studio International May 1971, A Magazine Sculpture1971. With Richard Long’s “Stone on Isle of Skye” 1970 on the cover.

An exhibition "The British Avant Garde," held at the New York Cultural Center, May 19 - August 29, 1971, was held in conjunction with this issue of Studio International and the catalogue for the exhibition contains the main body of the contents of the May 1971 issue of Studio International. 

“In September 1970, Harrison informed the artists that as the project was a joint venture withStudio International’s May 1971 issue he intended to commission them to make work “direct for the printed page”.18 These contributions would be treated by the artists as an extension of the exhibition, as well as a record of it.19The results formed a dedicated issue of Studio International, acknowledging the NYCC’s involvement. An extra run, minus the masthead, was printed as the exhibition catalogue.” – Jo Melvin, “The British Avant Garde: A Joint Venture Between the New York Cultural Center and Studio International Magazine”, in British Art Studies, Issue 3, Summer 2016.

“This issue of Studio International was immediately regarded as a reference point for new practices in British art. The international attention affected the reputation of the artists included. Michael Compton, the Tate Gallery’s assistant keeper, organised Seven Exhibitions in 1972 in space made available by the cancellation of Robyn Denny’s show.  When the Arts Council of Great Britain began planning what would be the first museum survey of new art practices by British artists in the UK, The New Art, Nicholas Serota (assistant to the exhibition officer, Ann Seymour), contacted Townsend to ask for twenty-four copies of the issue. The Hayward exhibition included many of the same artists as The British Avant Garde, and several films were screened again.”  – UAL Research Online
