Yerself is Steam n Time Out by Tania Guha

Yerself is Steam
Tania Guha

In 1996 Iain and Jane curated Yerself is Steam, a summer show featuring an incredible and unusual collection of work by 40 London-based artists including Dinos and Jake Chapman, Sam Taylor Wood, Tracey Emin, Carl Freedman, Matthew Higgs, Stewart Home alongside work fresh from degree show walls by Polly Staple, Mark Jessett and Dan Howard Birt. Tania Guha reviewed the show in its opening week for Time Out, ranking it as a critic's choice - the exhibition was visited by over a thousand people in its three week run.

This review originally appeared in Time Out, 24th - 31st July 1996

Excerpt: "If the new British school of art exists then, judging by this show, it's more Grange Hill than Bloomsbury. A treat; don't miss it."
