Description

Kunstenaarstijdschrift van Stephen Willats (Londen 17-08-1943) diende als forum voor kunstenaars om hun beroepspraktijk te bediscussiëren als middel voor de vooruitgang van hun opvattingen: statements over kunst en maatschappij. - Implicit in any coherent standpoint is an articulated foundation, which if it is to be useful as a prescription needs to be rigorously investigated and defined. The needs to further such an investigation has played a large part in influencing the selection of contributions to this issue, ? which are seen as providing an area of discourse, analysis and methodological direction in areas where there has been little consideration on the part of the artist previously.
