The essays in this collection explore the extraordinarily rich
networks of international artists and art practices that emerged in
and around London during the 1960s and '70s, a period that saw an
explosion of new media and fresh attitudes and approaches to making
and thinking about art. The contributors to London Art Worlds
examine the many activities and movements that existed alongside
more established institutions in this period, from the rise of
cybernetics and the founding of alternative publications to the
public protests and new pedagogical models in London's art schools.
The essays explore how international artists and the rise of
alternative venues, publications, and exhibitions, along with a
growing mobilization of artists around political and cultural
issues ranging from feminism to democracy, pushed the boundaries of
the London art scene beyond the West End's familiar galleries and
posed a radical challenge to established modes of making and
understanding art. Engaging, wide-ranging, and original, London Art
Worlds provides a necessary perspective on the visual culture of
the London art scene in the 1960s and '70s. Art historians and
scholars of the era will find these essays especially valuable and
thought provoking. In addition to the editors, contributors to this
volume are Elena Crippa, Antony Hudek, Dominic Johnson, Carmen
Julia, Courtney J. Martin, Lucy Reynolds, Joy Sleeman, Isobel
Whitelegg, and Andrew Wilson.
