London Arts Café NEWSLETTER
(members get a free copy - £2.50 to non members. 2 issues per year.)
Articles, news and reviews on all forms of urban art have been published
in the biannual newsletter. Papers have ranged from the comparison between
London and Milwaukee in photographs, to architecture (bridges and tower
blocks), via design (Marlboro City advertising campaign), the interaction
of artist and architect on a Paris housing estate, computer modelling
on cities, as well as publishing the text of LAC exhibitions.
From January 2001, we have had an upgraded newsletter with a new editor
and a new designer. As well as publishing in colour, issues have been
based around themes such as 'Arts and Regeneration', 'Artists and 11 September'

was tried and tested in October 2000 an iis available to members (£5)

with the clues and the third with the documentary text, but could also
be used by two or more.
