Brian Lane's unique contribution to small-press publishing was begun in the mid nineteen-sixties at Gallery Number Ten in Blackheath, south-east London. This was one of the first artists' spaces in Britain, and alongside its programme of exhibitions and events, there emerged a growing list of publications with poets and artists.
The apogee of this activity was, however, the late nineteen-seventies, when under the imprint of Editions Brian Lane, he issued many of his distilled performances in print. These included, amongst others, Six Portraits of the Artist, In Good Company, index card works, boxes of gathered information, stylised ephemera, and button-badge works made to be worn.
In the mid nineteen-eighties, Brian Lane worked extensively on the seminal exhibition 'The Artist Publisher' and its catalogue with the pivotal first chapter entitled Self Publishing as a Critical Alternative. Throughout the whole project of his work, there is the sense of a printed score to be performed, from the earlier days of experimental music through improvisations on small letterpress printing machines, to the use of photocopier and rubber stamp.
Brian Lane's published works are held in the Tate Gallery Archive.
