London: Art & Artists, 1966
A single issue of this periodical which focuses on the Auto Destructive movement and has the rare signature of Gustav Metzger on the pages relating to his avant grade activities/contribution following the Destruction In Art Symposium that he co-ordinated and founded in London.
Other articles include Anthony Cox on Yoko Ono, including photos of her ‘Cut Piece’; Frank Popper on Jean Tinguely; the Nuclear Painting Manifesto; Wolf Vostell; Ralph Orates; John Latham; Yves Klein’s fire pictures; a Destruction Event with Al Hansen, Judy Nathanson and Meredith Monk, at the Cafe Au Go Go, Nov. 1964; Daniel Spoerri; Lucio Fontana; and more.
The middle pages have the Symposium programme reproduced as part of an advert. VG condition although there is a hand-written note in ink on the cover thus: ‘pp 22 – 3 Gustav Metzger a good – if somewhat mad – friend of Vicki’s in the 60s ‘ and ‘RFM’.
We apologise to Mr Metzger for the libel which is someone else’s not ours!.
