Poster for Jane Arden’s play Vagina Rex and the Gas Oven, 1969, at the Arts Laboratory, London.

A PDF of Julian’s essay “What is a Laboratory?” — produced on the occasion of the Wexner Center for the Arts’ 2022 exhibition “To Begin, Again: A Prehistory of the Wex, 1968–89,” curated by Daniel Marcus — can be downloaded here.

It offers a compact genealogy of the “arts laboratory” in the 20th century in the USA and UK.
