Art & Project was a leading contemporary art gallery founded by Geert van Beijeren (1933-2005) & Adriaan van Ravesteijn (1938-2015). The gallery ran from 1968 to 2001 in Amsterdam and Slootdorp, the Netherlands, and is synonymous with the influential gallery’s bulletin of the same name published between 1968 and 1989. During their thirty-year existence, Art & Project and the Art & Project Bulletin made substantial contributions to the Dutch art scene working with an international group of conceptual artists such as Brouwn, Weiner, Dibbets, Kosuth, Barry, LeWitt, Van Elk, Gilbert & George, Buren, Bochner, Dar Boven, Long, Huebler, Baldessari and many others. 800 copies of each of the 156 numbered issues of Art & Project Bulletin were published between 1968 and 1989 in standard A4 format. 400 of each issue were mailed out and 400 kept by Art & Project to be handed out in the gallery. Bulletin 35 was mailed out on 22.3.1971 for Richard Long’s exhibition which ran from 17.7 - 6.8 1971. The present example of Bulletin 35 is from the un-mailed half. Lyrics from Johnny Cash's 'Walk the Line' are printed on the inside of this Art & Project bulletin by Richard Long. The bulletins were the carriers of these artists' ideas and sometimes functioned as conceptual works of art themselves. “The artists most at home with creating pageworks for the format of the Bulletin are Lawrence Weiner and Richard Long, the one primarily with words, the other primarily with photographs…Long tended to bleed a photograph of one of his open air works to fill the entire space of the centrefold, to great effect. The fact that Long’s photographs were also very often overprinted with a few sentences, as in the photograph used for Bulletin 35, helped to root the image specifically to the page.”–Art & Project Bulletins 1-156, September 1968-November 1989 (2011), p. 21
