[新聞] 戰後英國文青必備藝術雜誌《ARK》重獲新生
由英國皇家藝術學院（Royal College of Art）創辦的藝術雜誌《ARK》，是一份相當具代表性、採取批判立場的藝術刊物，從 1950 年發行至 1978 年停刊，共有 54 期，《ARK》雜誌的文章多由當時就讀藝術學院的學生與教授撰寫，此外，還有許多藝術家提供精彩的作品，比如 Ralph Rumney、Lucio Fontana 等當時相當前衛的創作者。標誌了英國戰後藝術、文化領域發展的景致，同時也作為一代英倫文藝青年獲取新知的精神食糧。直至 2004 年，才再度由皇家藝術學院的學生承繼當年《ARK》雜誌的精神，創立了另一份藝術雜誌《RCA》。而如今這份雜誌雖然已停刊多年，但雜誌的精華被編選成冊出版《ARK: Words and Images from the Royal College of Art Magazine》：http://www.biosmonthly.com/daily_news_topic/7748
