Date modified Dec. 15, 2024, 8:53 a.m. Dec. 15, 2024, 8:52 a.m.
Stephanie Britton trained as an artist in South Africa and London, and did postgraduate studies at Flinders University. She has worked as a curator and an organiser of events such as Artists Week of the Adelaide Festival, and was art critic on South Australian newspapers _The News_ (1971–77) and _The Sunday Mail_ (1980) before founding _Artlink_ in 1981 as a bi-monthly 20-page black and white magazine with the initial aim of providing a national profile for South Australian art, and linking the various contemporary art organisations which existed in Adelaide. She continued as Executive Editor when it became a quarterly themed national and international journal. She was a co-founder of the Australian Network for Art & Technology.
Britton retired from the editorship to Byron Bay, NSW in July 2014 and writes on Australian art and connections with Asia. She was a co-founder of the Australian Network for Art & Technology.
