Gateavisa (69 Issues, 1976-1992)
AU$1,500.00 Read MoreAdd to cartGateavisa
Oslo: Futrum Forlag, 1976-1992.Broken run of 69 issues of Norwegian anarchist and counterculture newspaper Gateavisa. First published in 1970 and through various forms and publishing schedules still being produced today. With an anti-authoritarian focus Gateavisa covered a wide range of topics, from occultism and mysticism to politics and philosophy, and of course underground comics. Gateavisa often featured stories on sex and drugs, and was an early supporter in an otherwise conservative Norway of LGBTQ rights and the legalisation of cannabis. Other regular columns ran on squatting, police violence, prisons, organic farming, pirate radios, punk, and more. This run (from March 1976 to March 1992) largely comes from its heyday when it was produced monthly in the late 1970s and early 1980s, though it also shows the editorial changes the magazine went through in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
