The gallery’s exhibition programs forecast emerging trends in; alternative practice, experimentation with new and hybrid media, the phenomenon of the curator, and the return of painting whilst an exceptional lecture program allowed audiences access to new philosophical and theoretical ideas by leading international and local thinkers, writers and artists.

Studio International was first published in April 1893 under the title The Studio: An Illustrated Magazine of Fine and Applied Art. It rapidly established itself as one of the most successful fine art periodicals in the English-speaking world. Among others, it featured the work of the illustrator Aubrey Beardsley – who even designed an elegant cover – and the architects Charles Rennie Mackintosh and CFA Voysey. It was one of the first art magazines to adopt photomechanical reproduction, a process that would dominate art publishing for a century.
