John Latham Archive

The visionary British artist John Latham died on 1st of January 2006. His influence on the visual arts is remarkable and yet consistently under-represented in the literature. His philosophical ideas on Events and Event Structures and 'Flat Time Theory', a unifying overview of the world, are fascinating, complex and worthy of serious study.
