Collaborations

Description:

This is a collection of the documentation of artworks done in the 1980s in London (mostly) that emphasises collaborations rather than the artist as individualist. The idea was to show what work a working class artist was doing at that time. Szczelkun was a founding member of **Brixton Artists Collective** from 1983 - 87. This was one of the first books in the *'Working Press: books by and about working class artists'* project 1986 - 96 that was recently archived by **University of the Creative Arts**, [UCA in Farnham][1].
