Series VII. Press clippings and publications, 1951-2004, undated<br />

Physical Description: 12.51 linear ft.(circa 28 boxes)<br />

Scope and Content Note<br />

The bulk of press articles date from the late 1950s to the late 1990s. The predominant portion is clipped<br />

from daily newspapers Rheinische Post, Düsseldorfer Nachrichten, and Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.<br />

Occcasionally, articles from other German press are present, such as Handelsblatt, Kölner Stadtanzeiger,<br />

Deutsche Zeitung, Neue Rhein Zeitung, Neues Rheinland, Die Welt, Düsseldorfer Wochenspiegel,<br />

Aachener Nachrichten, Der Mittag and Das Kunstwerk. A few transcripts from the foreign press are<br />

included. Numerous articles are by John Anthony Thwaites, the British art critic and author who lived and<br />

worked in West Germany from 1946.<br />

Present are reviews of exhibitions and invitation cards to exhibitions held at <strong>Galerie</strong> <strong>Schmela</strong>; reviews of<br />

group shows held in museums and galleries in Germany and abroad; articles about Documenta 6 and 7;<br />

reviews of art auctions; issues of various magazines which include articles about Alfred <strong>Schmela</strong> or the<br />

gallery; articles concerning trends in contemporary art, art criticism, or politcs of art, and articles on<br />

individual artists, collectors, museum curators, art dealers, and art institutions. Filed at the end of this<br />

series are correspondence, press clippings, and other <strong>records</strong> concerning Kölner Kunstmarkt, and four<br />

publications annotated or marked with references to Alfred <strong>Schmela</strong>.<br />

Press clippings are also included in Series I. Correspondence and Series VI. Ephemera. Press clippings<br />

on Joseph Beuys, Yves Klein, and ZERO are also filed with Series II.<br />

Arrangement<br />

The twelve subseries preserve the original topical order of files kept at the gallery, except for invitation<br />

cards which were originally filed with reviews of exhibitions held at <strong>Galerie</strong> <strong>Schmela</strong>, but were pulled to<br />

form a separate subseries. Most subseries are arranged chronologically or alphabetically. The subseries<br />

Kölner Kunstmarkt is grouped by category of documents, with correspondence, price lists, and press<br />

clippings subdivided chronologically. The four publications are listed, but not arranged.<br />
