Global & Local

Artists’ books, Zines, Multiples & Ephemera by Field Study Networkers in Australia

(20th September till 3rd October 2011)

Geelong Library

49 Little Malop St. Geelong, VIC 3220

Field Study issued its first manifesto in 1993. Influenced by the surrealist, fluxus and mail art movements it also is a logical continuation of the free press movement of the 1960s. Coordinated by David Dellafiora and Benedict Phillips, its artistic output is centred around the annual ‘Field Report’ assembling book. This tradition continues with the growth of sister assembling publications: KART, ReSite and WIPE.

With all the Field Study publications, artists contribute multiples of their work that are accepted and included with minimal editorial control or censorship. These contributions can come from all over the world and their scope is diverse and inclusive. In fact anyone is invited to become a Field Study networker, irrespective of their arts practice.

Global & Local exhibition in the glass case of Geelong Library showcases Field Study’s assembling publications and shows works made by Australian Field Study networkers including:

Marc Cuthbertson, David Dellafiora, Phil Edwards, Robyn M Fry, Susan Hartigan, Mardi Janetzki, Karingallery, Glenn Fry, Noreen Grahame, Denis Mizzi, Jiri Tibor Novak, F’nL Osowski, Luke Sinclair, Glen Smith, Zoe Snyder, Ive Sorocuk, Pete Spence, Spowart & Cooper, Stephen Spurrier, David Lawrence Stafford, Guy Sterling, Cornelis Vleeskens & Anthony Woodward
