About This Item
London.: Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA)., 1958. Four panel folding sheet, printed in red and black, designed by Richard Smith.. (25.5 x 17 cm, folding out to 25.5 x 68 cm).. Exhibition brochure for the landmark exhibition held at London’s ICA, January - February 1958. The exhibition at the ICA offered the young artists the opportunity to show at this important avant-garde centre. Roger Coleman, in the catalogue’s introduction, echoes Independent Group preoccupations when he explains that these artists: ‘… regard “Astounding Science Fiction” as more essential reading than say, Roger Fry’. The exhibition is noteworthy as being the first catalogue in which the great British pop artist Peter Blake appears. Amongst his eleven works exhibited are the now famous paintings ‘On the Balcony’, ‘Strong Man’, and ‘Bearded Lady’. This copy of the catalogue from the collection of the British artist Anthony Hill, with his name stamp on the front cover.
