Artists' Week Adelaide 1986
Issue 6:2&3 | June 1986
Editor: Stephanie Britton
Festival Issue: papers from Artists' Week | Featuring writing from: Bruce Petty, Donald Brook, Meaghan Morris, Peter Schjedahl, Helen Grace
With the generally very positive response from the community to the Adelaide Festival's visual arts programme in 1986 including Artists' Week, Artlink has once more devoted virtually an entire double issue to the Festival. The approach was to publish in full a number of the longer papers from Artists' Week and review a selection of the exhibitions rather than try to overview the whole programme.
