Silence: a gavotte is so difficult nobody knows how to do it now. No.13 / Barry Flanagan, editor ; Flanagan B., 1965

 Item
Identifier: CC-39486-41442
Scope and Contents This periodical was edited by Barry Flanagan. According to Thames and Hudsons Dictionary of Arts and Artists, Flanagan is "a British sculptor who has emerged since the 1960s as one of the most interesting, original and distinguished contemporary sculptors. He studied at St Martin's School of Art 1964-6, at the time when Caro and King were teaching there. Initially Flanagan made abstract work with a variety of materials -- cloth, rope, sand, polystyrene, light and glass -- some of which were Environmental installations. Flanagan also made films, drawings, etchings and furniture. From the 1970s he started working in metals, stone, clay and marble: his 'anarchic wit' became even more pronounced in this work; he also began making discreet references to traditional carving and modelling in mysterious, fossil-like sculptures, or references to prehistoric and Celtic iconography.

Identifier: CC-53650-65706
Scope and Contents

In 1957, a few experimental European groups came together to form the Situationist International. The name came from their aim of liberating everyday life through the creation of open-ended, participatory situations (as opposed to fixed works of art). Over the next decade the situationists developed a critique of the global spectacle-commodity system, and their new methods of agitation helped trigger the May 1968 revolt in France. Although the SI was dissolved in 1972, situationist theories and tactics have continued to inspire radical currents in dozens of countries all over the world. This is the most comprehensive collection of situationist writings in English, greatly revised and expanded, with over 100 pages of new material. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
