everything Magazine 1992-2002

Welcome to the everything Magazine Digital Archive. The archive aims to make historical issues of the 1990s London-based art magazine everything readily available.

everything Magazine began as a periodical newsletter produced by some members of Riverside Artists’ Group, based in Hammersmith, London. Over the years the publication developed into a London based, internationally distributed artists run magazine, organised by the collective everything Editorial.

In form, content and editorial direction, everything’s evolution not only reflected the rapidly changing London art world in the decade 1992-2002, but was itself both a response by a group of artists to those changes, and also a self-rationalising pragmatic account of both the possibilities and limitations of how an artist’s run magazine might be able to continue to contribute something distinct from professional art journalism per se. Comprising verbatim interviews, formal interventions, freebies, foldouts, cut outs, creative writing, manifestoes, book reviews and visual projects, Everything evidences the words and ideas of artists, curators, critics, gallerists and dealers who were active in a period of rapid change within and beyond Britain’s capital. Whilst there were a number of art magazines produced in the 1990s, as an archive of Fine Art practice, everything Magazine is arguably unique both in terms of the diversity of its content and the manner of its evolution over the course of ten years.

Location and funding: The association with the Riverside Artists Group diminished when the magazine relocated to the then artists’ studios complex below OId Spitalfields Market, on Brushfield Street E1 in late 1993. The editorial team was re-constituted as a collective ¬– everything Editorial – in 1995. In 1996 the office relocated to Camberwell Business Centre, SE5. During the period of its publication, the magazine received funding from both London Arts Board and the then Arts Council of England. From 1997 the magazine was distributed by Central Books both across the UK and internationally. The magazine ceased publication in 2002, when ACE funding ceased.

everything Online

everything Online was an important part of everything's evolution alongside its development in print. The site was launched in 1996 and comprised online versions of articles from everything volume 1 and 2 and online projects by artists (commissioned by everything Editorial). The site also archived eBC, the webcasting project conducted during everything Editorial’s residency at the ICA London in 1997.
